The growth of cloud computing has encouraged an ecosystem where diverse, task-specific web and mobile applications have flourished. However, this fragmentation of tasks across disparate applications has introduced a level of complexity and separation that can be time-consuming and difficult to navigate for individuals who are older, have cognitive disabilities, or are unfamiliar with web and mobile interfaces. Each new application represents an additional interface that must be learned, and not necessarily easily or intuitively. Easy One Communicator is a web application concept that addresses the complexity of online communication tools by consolidating and simplifying the management of online communication. Easy One Communicator provides a simple interface for users to read and send emails, text and video chat, share photos and maintain contact information. The interface is designed to be obvious to use and personalized to each user's changing cognitive abilities and needs.
