Abstract
"PWH easyGo" is a mobile smartphone application (app) designed to help patients and visitors to look for different departments and facilities on the hospital premises. Posters with QR code are displayed at various hospital entrances. Users with the app installed can scan the QR codes printed on posters on site or manually select their current locations and destinations in the app, and the system will display the relevant routes with photos. It is the first such app developed by the Hong Kong Hospital Authority and is available for download at Apple store (iOS version) and Play Store (Android version).
