The mobile device ownership rate of the elderly is rising, but there are few suitable specific design principles. In addition, assessing an elderly-centered design's usability and social benefits is challenging, but the existing human-computer interaction does not fully support it. By making it easier to obtain digitalized life through mobile devices, the elderly can gain more benefits. This project aims to fully understand the needs of the elderly by investigating the current aging trend in China's society and the living conditions of the elderly and designing and developing a digital interface based on cognitive psychology theories that promote it to different communities and hospitals. This study produces two application concepts for the elderly on various platforms, including mobile phones, tablets, and wearable devices. In a social sense, such products can increase attention to the elderly, measure the mental health of the elderly.
