One tablet in their room, one they already have, and one app on your phone. Everything below happens without your relative doing anything at all.
Calls that answer themselves
Your name is announced out loud through the device, so they know who is calling before they even look up. The call then connects on its own within ten seconds. They press nothing, which is why it still works when a phone no longer does.
Works with: dementia, tremor, arthritis, limited mobility, low vision.
Memories, all day
Photos and videos shared by anyone in the circle appear on the screen automatically and keep playing between calls. A living frame of everyone who loves them.
How: Share from the app. It appears in seconds. No limit on how many people join.
Their station, on time
Any station, any language, anywhere in the world. Play it now, or schedule a favourite to start on its own. Their local station every morning, without a button.
How: A gentle chime, then it plays. It never interrupts a call.
Gentle reminders
A spoken nudge at the right moment. A tablet to take, an appointment, a daughter visiting at four. Set from your phone, wherever you are.
How: Spoken out loud on their device, at the time you choose.
They can call you, too
Choose up to four people. Their faces appear at the edge of the screen, and one touch rings that person’s phone. If you want one, a red Alarm button rings the one person you trust most.
How: Switch on Two-way calling on the Manage Device screen. It is off until you do. The Alarm calls your chosen contact. It does not call 999 and it is not a monitored alarm service.
Investigation phase
Everyday rhythms
A quiet sense of how their days are going, so you feel connected to their week rather than only to the moments you happen to catch.
Status: Investigation phase. We are still working out whether and how to build this well. It would be gentle and non-medical, never a diagnosis.
