ABSTRACT
Nowadays, users of mobile technologies expect solutions which ensure interaction and accessibility of information. Expectations of seniors in terms of using mobile applications certainly differ from those of young people. There are many mobile apps on the market, such as banking, navigation, communication or medical ones. Only some of them are dedicated directly to seniors, who use modem technological solutions, especially financial ones, least often. The lack of knowledge and the fear of new technologies can be listed as principal barriers to it. However, the attitudes to mobile technologies in this age group evolve year by year. The purpose of this article is to present the assessment of selected mobile apps from the perspective of seniors. A face-to-face questionnaire and value network analysis by Verna Alee are going to be the applied research methods.
