Abstract

The widespread of smart-devices has gone further from computers & phones, progressively integrating themselves everywhere: tv is, radios and clothes are or shall be shortly inteligent, susceptible of new APP's and uses. But the most amaizing achievement has been, for the first time, the reduction of the digital breach between generations: the third age is adopting the new tech thanks to it is easiness in access and customization. We intend to analyze this phenomenon and to briefly classify those APP's that have made everything possible, so we can better understand the importance of each one.
