Description

Daydaytalk 日日講

Daydaytalk is an audio diary sharing platform tackling social isolation and depression among elders. The goal of the project is to provide an easy-to-use platform so that elders can express themselves and connect with their family members, friends and neighbours. Daydaytalk can help people to find conversational topics and build in-depth friendships.

Despite the high penetration rate of smartphone among elders, mainstream social media didn’t concern the needs of elders, causing social exclusion. Inputting words is difficult for the elderly, with Daydaytalk elders can upload audio diary and express themselves easily. Users can talk about their health condition, interesting life experience or hobbies. Elder’s family members, friends and neighbours can listen, give like and comment on the diary. Daydaytalk can help users to build in-depth relationship with neighbours through the location-based friend suggestion and inbox feature. Group forum feature support users to discuss hobbies.

Elders do not want to be the burden of others therefore they often will not ask for help. It might worsen their health conditions. With the app solitary elders can find help more easily in emergent situation, the reason is with audio diary, social workers, family members, friends or neighbours can keep track of the elders’ well-being.

日日講是個專為長者而設的語音日記分享平台，可以減輕長者抑鬱的情況。目的是提供容易使用的社交平台讓長者表達自己或與家人、朋友和鄰居聯繫。日日講可以幫助用家之間找到話題和建立深厚的友誼。
