    An app for MD!?

    Hello all! I hope you don’t mind, but I’m currently working on a project where we’ve been challenged to create an app for your phone that helps improve the lives of those that suffer from or are affected by muscular dystrophy.

    I’m keen to get your thoughts on what you think could be useful in an app? I.e better ways of connecting with eachother, sharing stories, getting video advice, organising charity work, looking for events etc. There’s no wrong answer!

    Many thanks for your time. Any feedback is appreciated.

    Ben

    Apps that would work well with either eye gaze or voice tech

    There are lots of opportunities to ‘socialise’ through a phone, if you can use it effectively. Thus I would strongly support Cat’s suggestion of voice or gaze use. May I also add that the app should be able to turn the phone on and off from the get go without having to type in access codes or use finger prints. Voice recognition here would be so valuable. Including in this voice activation app would be the ability to restart the phone that helps to clear its cache and other things. For example my iphone 8+ in its case, is almost impossible for me to restart after a power off, as the button is far to hard for me to press down.
    Just my 2p worth.

    So many love songs, so little love.
