Within the last decade, technology has dramatically changed the way we read, write, and communicate. Apple’s iPad and Amazon’s Kindle are at the forefront of those changes by making their technology more accessible to a wide spectrum of people, especially seniors. With easy to use, large interfaces, seniors are now more inclined to read, write, and go online.
Cataracts and Glaucoma are two common vision ailments affecting seniors and their lifestyle. Unfortunately the joy of reading books or using the computer becomes a chore due to the dificulty in reading small type and images. With both the iPad and the Kindle, you can easily enlarge things so readers can clearly see the display. This function also makes it easier for seniors to surf the Internet, buy products online, and watch videos.
One of the greatest senior-friendly aspects of the iPad and Kindle is its size. They are larger than a phone but smaller than most laptop computers making them easy to keep track of. They are also very mobile and can be brought with you on trips to the doctor or used on car and bus rides to pass the time and keep you informed and entertained. Additionally senior-friendly applications are on the rise and include helpful tools for everything from medication tracking to diabetes monitoring.
With the iPad and Kindle, seniors are now free to read their favorite books, daily news, enjoy emails and photos from family members and stay as connected as they want to be.
