Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Men and women aged 65 and older residing in the community who own and use smartphones regularly. Individuals capable of recognizing text (in Japanese) on the screen of their device and performing input operations, with sufficient visual, motor, and cognitive functions. Participants with an MMSE score of 24 or higher (since the study targets individuals living independently in the community, it is generally assumed that their MMSE score will be 24 or higher. However, if participants with an MMSE score of 23 or lower are identified, they will be categorized separately and allowed to continue using the app).

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Individuals living outside their own homes, such as in care facilities, receiving assistance from others in daily life. Those who were unable to independently master the operation of the app used in this study within the allotted practice time. (While their participation, evaluation, and app usage will be conducted in the same manner as eligible participants, taking into account relationships with other participants, they will be treated as dropouts if they do not actually use the app.)
