No Monthly Subscription

Memoryboard is a one-time purchase — a memory board with no subscription and no ongoing fees to worry about. You buy it once and your family uses it every single day, without a recurring bill quietly draining your account each month. We believe supporting a loved one through memory loss should bring peace of mind, not another monthly expense to manage.

Keep the connection going

Families can use Memoryboard for years without adding a new monthly expense.

Your Loved One Does Not Need Tech Skills

The person viewing Memoryboard doesn't need to open an app, respond to notifications, remember passwords, or learn a new device. There is nothing for them to set up, unlock, or figure out. Memoryboard simply lives on the wall, ready and waiting — no login screens, no menus, no buttons to press.

A Passive Display, Not Another Gadget to Learn

Memoryboard works as a passive display dementia families can rely on — messages, photos, and reminders simply appear on the screen, no action required. Because information shows up on its own, there is nothing to open and nothing to miss. This gentle, always-on approach reduces confusion and makes the day's details easier to notice, helping your loved one feel oriented and connected without ever touching the screen.

Caregivers Can Update It Remotely

Family members can update Memoryboard from anywhere using the caregiver app — even when you live hundreds of miles away. A quick message, a gentle reminder, or a photo from your phone appears on their screen in moments, no visit required.

What You Can Send

Your appointment is at 2:00 p.m.

I will call you after dinner.

Lunch is in the refrigerator.

Happy birthday, Grandma!

Sending you a photo from the kids' visit 💜

Remote updates keep families involved in the everyday moments without needing to visit every day. From a quick lunchtime note to a birthday wish or a photo from the grandkids, you can stay present in your loved one's day — offering reassurance, reducing confusion, and letting them feel your care from wherever life takes you.

Simple Setup and Everyday Use

Memoryboard is designed to be easy to set up and effortless to maintain. It arrives ready to use right out of the box, and once it's on the wall or a bedside table, there's nothing for your loved one to manage. Caregivers handle everything from a simple app, so the person viewing the display can simply enjoy a clear, calming view of their day.

A Passive Display for Dementia Support

What "Passive Display" Means

A passive display simply shows helpful information without asking the older adult to do anything at all. There are no buttons to press, no apps to open, and nothing to remember or manage. The screen quietly presents the day, date, reminders, and messages, so useful details are always in view.

By keeping important information visible throughout the day, Memoryboard can gently support daily routines — a reminder about lunch, a note about an afternoon appointment, or a comforting message from family. Because everything stays on screen, your loved one can glance over whenever they need reassurance, helping the day feel calmer and more predictable.

Please note: Memoryboard does not treat, prevent, or cure dementia or memory loss — it simply supports daily communication.
