The recently launched Agewhale mobile application is making waves in Hong Kong’s caregiving community, with early users reporting significant improvements in managing their dual roles as employees and family caregivers.
According to the project’s final report, over 70% of test users found the app made searching for eldercare services more convenient, while 50% valued the community reviews feature for making informed care decisions. The app’s consultation services and messaging features provided reassurance to 40% of users, with nearly one-third reporting better systematic management of caregiving responsibilities.
“The app helped me handle caregiving tasks more efficiently, which reduced my stress levels,” shared one user during the testing phase. The positive impact extends beyond personal well-being, with 40% of users anticipating improved work-life balance and workplace productivity.
The app’s innovative approach to supporting working caregivers caught the attention of the South China Morning Post, which featured Agewhale in a recent article about digital solutions for caregivers.
Based on user feedback, Agewhale is now developing enhanced features, including calendar integration, multiple account access for family members, and educational resources. Future versions will incorporate AI-powered support and community forums.
