Lockdown mode is what makes Homer Audio Player unique: it's not just an app, it's a device. It's what makes Homer so easy to use and perfect for older, non-tech-savvy users. #Accessibility #SeniorTech #ElderCare #Elderly #LowVision #Blind #AgingInPlace #AndroidDev

New version 1.5.3: - Ignore non-audio files. Fixes issues with some books not playing or not being able to rewind after reaching the end. - Don't scan files with name starting with a "." dot. These fixes were possible thanks to user reports, thank you ❤️

For those who need to listen to audiobooks to fall asleep: headband with small speakers for listening in bed. The charging port may be difficult to find for visually impaired but a magnetic connector fits it very well 👍 #seniors #podcasts #audiobooks #elderly #grandparents #gadget

Design for seniors: avoid quick actions. Players only go to the previous track when already very close to the beginning of the current one. Older users tend to wait for confirmation of every action therefore they don't operate this fast. Homer now has 10s threshold to accommodate slower users.

Designing for seniors: better grip. Hand functions deteriorate with age, often making it harder to hold things without a large grip area. Homer Audio Player allows adding screen margins to increase the area to hold. #elderly #seniors #aging #accessibility #uxdesign #elderlycare #technology

I created Homer for my grandmother as her eyesight was deteriorating. Existing players were to complex for her. She's been using a tablet with Homer for years now. I can update audiobooks remotely via G. Drive and podcasts provide fresh content every day. #seniors #elderly #accessibility #uxdesign
