123Family: Video calling for people with dementia

123Family is a communication app designed for people with dementia, limited digital skills or forgetfulness, enabling them to stay connected with family and loved ones via easy-to-use video calling. The platform focuses on simplicity: the interface is intuitive, doesn’t require training, and supports use even on older mobile devices.

Video Calling Built for Seniors & Memory-Impaired Users: The app emphasises body language and visual contact because for people with dementia, up to 90 % of communication can be non-verbal. By using video calling, the app allows meaningful social interaction even when digital skills are limited.
Full Privacy & Controlled Access: Only registered family members and friends can connect with the user, ensuring a private and safe communication circle.
Ultra-Simple, Training-Free Interface: 123Family's UI is designed so that even users with minimal digital experience can operate it without training. The app can even overwrite the Android home screen to avoid confusion and ensure the user stays within the app.
Remote Management & Support: Family members can manage and maintain the device remotely — no need for the senior user to perform updates or configurations themselves.
Auto-Answer Option: For users who are unable or find it difficult to press buttons, the app supports automatic call acceptance so that loved ones can reach them effortlessly.
Works on Older Devices: Even older smartphones or tablets can be repurposed with 123Family, making it an ideal solution for families who wish to re-use existing hardware.
