PawPawMail 2016

PawPawMail allows you to give the gift of simple communication to an older friend or relative.

The iPad app gives seniors/elderly/older adults the easiest possible way to keep in touch electronically. The PawPawMail service allows them to write and receive e-mail messages from friends and family, but in a far simpler way than by using a regular e-mail account.

PAWPAWMAIL SERVICE ================

PawPawMail (the app) requires an already-existing PawPawMail account.

PawPawMail allows a trusted friend or family member to help out by using an Assistant's interface.

Always feel free to contact us ( support [at sign] pawpawmail [dot] com ) for help with this app, or with the service in general!

FEATURES ==========================

Most importantly, PawPawMail is simple to use in a few different ways:

•  For those with declining or impaired vision:

- - - We use very large type, large buttons, and clear, high-contrast interface elements
- - - in a gentle color scheme that encourages use.

• For those who are new to the digital world:

- - - An intuitive touch interface uses the best elements of the iPad while adapting
- - - to make the basics even simpler.

•  For those with dexterity problems:

- - - Buttons placed so that they work well with the on-screen keyboard and designed
- - - to minimize errors by separating different functions to prevent accidental presses.


• For those with impaired memory:

- - - We've added cues everywhere (including pictures when available) to indicate
- - - the person who has written to the user, or to whom he or she is writing,
- - - along with available notes about contacts.

SUMMARY =========================

Overall, PawPawMail's interface makes everything simpler for users in countless subtle ways. This allows users to get communicating quickly without being overwhelmed by the assistance.
