Abstract :One of the main purposes of technology is to provide people with a quality life. Today, mobile systems and applications that can run on smart devices make life easier for people with smart devices. The rapid development of technology has also brought innovations in the field of health. Specifically, applications to improve the quality of life of individuals with mental and physical illnesses or certain disabilities are becoming more and more widespread. Alzheimer\\\'s disease is a neurological disorder that causes the death of brain cells over time, leading to memory loss, dementia, and a general decline in cognitive functions. The disease causes a decline in thinking, memory, and behavioral functions. In this study, we present the design stages of a unique mobile application called \\\"Remind Me If I Forget \\\", which will help Alzheimer\\\'s patients to better adapt to life. Information about the development process, main features, the purpose of the application, and its differences from some similar applications are described in this article. Kotlin, a native programming language, was used in the project. Agile project management methodology was used in project management. Since the rate of Android device users worldwide is 87%, application development in the Android operating system was preferred. The application was developed in the Android Studio environment. The Mobile Application has been developed to be integrated into smartwatches.
