For families caring from a distance

Stay part of their day, even from miles away.

Send messages and pictures to a dedicated display in your loved one's home, and add things like daily reminders, visit reminders, the caregiver on duty and their favorite music. It all arrives from anywhere, within seconds. ElderBoard is built for families supporting someone with dementia or memory loss. It runs on any internet-connected device you already have, like a tablet (iPad or Android) or smart TV.

Steps for your loved one
How It Works

Ready in minutes.
Nothing for your loved one to learn.

The person using ElderBoard never has to touch it. Everything is handled by family, from a phone or computer.

01
Put it on a screen you own

Pick a tablet (iPad or Android) or a smart TV you already have. Open its browser, visit your personal ElderBoard address and add it to the home screen. Plan on about five minutes.

02
Bring in the family

Send your private family link to the people you approve, such as children, siblings or close friends. Each of them can send content, and no one else can get to the display.

03
Share from wherever you are

Photos, messages and appointment and visit reminders go from your phone to the display automatically. Your loved one doesn't have to do anything.

Features

More than messages and photos.
Make it fit your loved one.

With ElderBoard you can send messages and pictures to a dedicated display in your loved one's home, and add things like the features below. Use every feature or just one, whatever works best for you. We are still building, so if you wish ElderBoard had something it doesn't yet, we'd love to hear your ideas.

Messages & reminders

Write a kind message, a medication reminder or a quick note. It shows up in big, warm, easy-to-read type.

Configurable welcome panel

Shows the time, the date, the weather and a personal greeting, with whatever your family chooses to include.

Night mode

Overnight the display softens into a quiet clock, then wakes by itself in the morning, so a bright screen never interrupts sleep.

Pinned photos

Pin a photo that matters, such as a wedding portrait, a grandchild or a moment your loved one connects with. It stays in the rotation until you take it off.

Works on your largest screen

ElderBoard works on any screen with a browser: a tablet, a monitor or the biggest TV in the house. For someone with dementia, being able to see it clearly matters most.

Time-aware daily schedule

The display always knows the time of day. "Right now: Lunch. Next up: Medications at 2:00 PM." Set the day's schedule once, with entries like a walk, a photo at breakfast or a favorite show, and the screen keeps itself up to date as the day goes on.

Safety affirmation

The display can show a calm, reassuring message of safety, a small touch that can mean a lot to someone with dementia who feels disoriented.

Background music

Turn on background music for the display: upload a playlist of songs your loved one knows, or pick a decade of radio, and choose the hours when it plays. Familiar music can be very comforting for someone with dementia.

Multiple display colors

Pick a warm color palette, including high-contrast choices, to suit your loved one's room and needs. It should look at home in their space, not like medical equipment.

Caregiver panel

Enter the caregiver's schedule and add their photo. While a caregiver is on duty, the display shows their face and name, for example "Your caregiver this morning is Ann", so your loved one knows who to expect. The greeting can be changed to your own words.

Bring Your Own Device

Nothing to buy.
Use the biggest screen you have.

ElderBoard runs on any internet-connected device with a browser, like an unused tablet, an iPad or a smart TV. A small display on a table can fade into the scenery. A TV on the wall showing a warm greeting in large text is something they will not miss.

Privacy & Safety

A closed circle.
Only people you invite.

Your loved one can’t browse the web from ElderBoard, and only family members you approve can send to the display. That is what brings families peace of mind.

Approved family only

Content can only come from people you have personally invited. There is no public access and no route for a stranger to reach your loved one.

No open internet

What is on screen is whatever your family sends. There is no web browsing, social media, advertising or news feed, so nothing from outside can appear uninvited.

Built to keep scammers out

Older adults are frequent targets of online scams. ElderBoard gives your loved one no way onto the open web from the display. They see only what approved family sends.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know

How is ElderBoard different from dedicated display products like Memoryboard?

ElderBoard is a Memoryboard alternative that runs on a device you already own, such as a tablet, iPad, smart TV or monitor, instead of dedicated hardware you have to buy. That also means it can use a much bigger screen, and it has a long list of customizable settings: a daily schedule, reminders, visit announcements, the caregiver on duty, background music, several color themes and a night mode. Families can switch on only the features that help their loved one.

What device do I need?

Any internet-connected device with a browser: a tablet, an iPad, a smart TV, a monitor, or an unused device you may already have at home. We suggest at least 10 inches for a bedside or kitchen setup, and a TV or large monitor for a living room where it needs to be seen from across the room.

Will I have to pay a monthly fee?

Families who join during the beta get ElderBoard free, for as long as they use it. After the beta, new families will pay once, with no monthly fees. We will tell families clearly about pricing before it applies to them.

Does my loved one have to touch anything?

Nothing. The person receiving ElderBoard doesn't tap, swipe or learn anything. Photos, messages and reminders simply appear on the display.

Can I choose what the display shows?

Yes. ElderBoard has a long list of settings so each family can fit it to their loved one. Use every feature or just one, such as messages and photos only, a daily schedule, the caregiver on duty, or music. Tell us what else would help and we will listen.

Can scammers reach my loved one through ElderBoard?

No. ElderBoard is a closed system, and only people you personally approve can send to the display. The screen has no web browsing, social media or ads, so there is no route for strangers to reach your loved one through it.

*Families who join during the beta keep ElderBoard free for as long as they use it. Families who join afterward will make a single payment with no monthly fees, and we'll announce pricing before it applies to them.
Don't have a device yet?

Any WiFi tablet, smart TV or browser-equipped screen will work. In a living room or shared space, a big TV on the wall is hard to overlook, and being easy to see matters for someone with dementia. A low-cost Fire Stick plus any smart TV is enough. Already have a device? Start your free board.
