Heritage language maintenance can be very challenging for diaspora communities worldwide. The role of technology on heritage language maintenance has recently started to spark the interest of researchers as a new emerging field but it still needs a lot of exploration. This exploratory study aims to provide an insight into Macedonian diaspora parents' experiences with digital tools and heritage language maintenance for younger children using a phenomenological approach. Data collected from 23 participants examined the parents' experience as members of these communities through surveys and follow-up interviews. Results reveal a strong interest in language maintenance, along with challenges such as lack of time and exposure and lack of digital resources for heritage language learning. Participants show a primary interest in using educational apps, emphasizing the need for interactional and engaging resources. Based on these findings, we provide recommendations for developing technology-mediated heritage language maintenance tools.
