Storytelling App – Bringing Generations Together Through Stories
Context
Modern families often lack the time for traditional storytelling, a practice crucial for child development, imagination, and cultural values. At the same time, many elderly individuals have a rich treasure of moral and cultural stories but limited opportunities to share them meaningfully with younger generations.
Solution
We designed a secure, interactive app that enables elderly storytellers to share stories with children through video calls, personalized recommendations, and replay features. The product bridges generational gaps while keeping safety and simplicity at the core.
