SilverSupport is an application made for the elderly. It is aimed at our ever-increasing ageing population in Singapore. This application hopes to provide the elderly with a platform that has timely responses to their needs, thus reducing the burden on social workers, volunteers and family. In this application, you should find 3 main features. The personal Chatbot feature allows users to communicate with a robot and hold simple conversations. The Sudoku and Matching Pairs are games that are meant to stimulate the brain and entertain the user. The list of Social Helplines at the end serves as an emergency contact for the user should he/she face a pressing issue or problem and have no one to turn to. Through this app, we hope to improve the mental lifestyles of the elderly in Singapore. We do believe that mental health is especially important in the later years of life, as it brings hope and faith to many.
