Description
Summary:This article describes the user-centered design of a service-oriented application to help people with memory limitations called Forgettify. Forgettify is an Android app that consumes REST services, which are managed by means of a Web client. The app provides a set of video guides that are used by people with memory limitations. The Web client is the tool used by professionals and family to customize the Android app. This application has been designed and developed using a User-Centered Design process inspired in the Usability Engineering Lifecycle. The article includes a preliminary user evaluation that shows the benefits of the proposal.
