Objective: To identify the scientific evidence about the educational technologies in health promotion for the elderly. Method: Integrative review study, which used the Medline databases via PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cinahl and Cochrane, from 2010 to 2019, submitted to a categorization by theme. Results: The search returned 303 articles on the databases and after reading the title and abstract, six articles were selected to compose the final sample. The educational technologies have emerged as tools in the health promotion of the elderly and qualification of caregivers. The videos (n=1), booklets (n=1) and group meetings (n=1) were the most widely accepted technologies by the elderly, however the applications for mobile devices and computers had greater acceptance by caregivers of the elderly (n=3). Moreover, the results highlighted the need for developing strategies to integrate innovative educational technologies in care and in public health policies, extending their scope in promoting the health of the elderly. Conclusions: There are various educational technologies used in the health promotion of the elderly. The knowledge of the profile of the target audience is necessary to ensure the selection of the adequate educational technology, and, in this way, to achieve its goal, providing autonomy and empowerment of this population.
