Technology could help us make
some tasks and activities simpler.
Imagine that you want
to listen to a song.
To do so, you have to
do a lot of steps:
- Find a music app.
- Know how to search for something.
- Write the name of the song.
- Press the search button.
- Choose the song among the results.
There are already technologies that
helps you do this in a few steps.
For example:
On some phones you can ask
for it with your voice.
Like this: “Hey Google. Play music.”
There are apps that create
buttons for things you usually do.
For example: a button to play music
from your favorite group,
or to check the weather in your city.
You press the buttons and do directly
the task or activity instead of taking
all the steps before.
