Abstract
We propose a ZUI (zoomable user interface)-based smartphone interface for elderly users. The proposed interface extends the application design space to provide an overview that allocates space to each function of the application according to its importance. According to the feedback of interviewees, an overview augmented by text-based guidance facilitated their understanding of the application.
