USER TESTING
Since the app was created in a collaboration with Ben-Gurion University, the
app was tested among the elderly in a nursing home in Beer-Sheva
We tried to create a useful app in the most intuitive and convenient way for a user who is not used to using the technology daily.
And the questions we tried to solve were:
-Is the fluo informative enough?
-Are the buttons clear?
-Whether fewer buttons contributes to using the app?
