The elderly population grows in Brazil and it is necessary to develop appropriate technologies to them. With the low prices of cell phones, many families would like their elderly to use this technology in order to have contact with them when they are not at home. However, the current design of cell phone applications favor young audience, instead of also considering the elderly different needs. Elderly population has its differences, like educational levels, experience with technology, cognitive skills and physical dexterity. This paper presents the design of interfaces that are flexible to meet the diverse requirements of elderly when interacting with cell phones. A framework for the design of flexible user interfaces was applied in a case study. Considering the results of this study with elderly users, interaction requirements were formalized considering syntactic, semantic and pragmatic aspects. Finally, a set of rules defining the design of the system flexible behavior was specified.
