| dc.description.abstract | An important ability for participation in society is wayfinding. In this paper the findings of a pilot user study conducted to assess the usability of the CompanionApp, a mobile application aimed at providing landmark training and wayfinding assistance to individuals with cognitive impairments are presented. The study focuses on the role of caregivers in using the app and explores their level of comfort with technology. Participants engaged in a workshop where they created routes using the app, followed by a feedback session. The results indicate promising usability of the app’s user interface and route creation process. However, certain aspects require clarification and a more comprehensive introduction. These findings highlight the potential of the CompanionApp in empowering individuals with cognitive impairments to navigate independently and foster inclusion. | en |
