A donation is a gift that is given voluntarily or sincerely without the expectation of receiving something in return. Donating in contemporary terminology is better known by the term philanthropy. Today, the emergence of charity platforms resulted in a modern society increasingly making donations in cyberspace, which are referred to as online charity. Although the use of digital technology allows for philanthropic activities to be carried out, there are still shortcomings in this online system. This paper aims to study mobile charitable applications among users. The survey has been conducted via Goggle form and distributed to 110 participants through the internet. The findings show that there are not many applications of this sort being produced by other developers and there is a need to develop a mobile application that can help donators and receivers. The proposed mobile applications should be faster, easy to manage and transparent. © The 2023 International Conference on Artificial Life and Robotics (ICAROB2023), Feb. 9 to 12, on line, Oita, Japan.
