Homer Audio Player - Audiobook and podcast player for visually impaired seniors

Caregivers configure the player and manage content, while loved ones enjoy audiobooks and podcasts independently - without confusion or mistakes. Homer's lockdown mode converts an Android device into an audio player for non-tech-savvy users who struggle with using a smartphone. Designed for elderly, visually impaired users; dementia patients and others who need a foolproof audio player.

Homer Player - An audiobook player for visually impaired seniors

Homer Player is an audiobook player for the elderly. Its simple interface is aimed at people with low vision who find regular MP3 players complex and unusable.

It is an Android app but it allows you to convert the whole device into a dedicated, single purpose, easy to use audiobook player.
