A little support, to keep doing the things you love
MemoryAid empowers people with dementia do the things they value and stay connected with loved ones.
A Breakthrough in Home Dementia Care
MemoryAid is a home support tool built around a familiar telephone handset, created to support independence and connection for people living with dementia. By turning the simple act of picking up a ringing phone into a gateway for video calls, personalised reminders, and step-by-step prompts, it supports people to keep doing the things they still can — in their own home, in their own way.
It's Easy as Picking Up the Phone
Design That's Genuinely Accessible
You already know how to use MemoryAid – there really is nothing new to learn. The familiar handset works just like an old landline, so there are none of the usual barriers to technology.
Connection Without Complication
Just pick up the phone to enjoy video calls from your loved ones – no need to navigate confusing apps or buttons. The large screen and built in speaker make it easy to see and hear who you're talking to.
Supporting Your Independence
You or your care partner can use the companion app to create and automate personalised reminders, so you can keep on top of daily tasks and activities while maintaining your independence.
Peace of Mind for Busy Lives
The companion app allows families and caregivers to check in and support their loved one from anywhere.

- Create and automate personalised reminders that guide your loved one through daily routines.
- Check in anytime.
- Make a video call with one tap to see that your loved one is safe and well.

- Manage reminders and updates on the go, knowing MemoryAid is there when you can’t be.
Real Users, Real Stories
Read what our test users thought about their experience with MemoryAid.
"I think the device has been the best thing since baked bread. It really is. Not once in the whole time [I've been using it] have I forgotten my pills. "
"This is so good for my own independence too, you know, and just being able to cope with daily tasks."
"It takes the pressure off knowing, like takes that stress away, that I don't have to have reminders of people doing it for me."
"I can do it. Makes me that independent. It just makes me feel I can do it. It's my other brain."
"After a couple of weeks it built that internal, kind of, awareness of routine."
"The having that interaction is good because then she's not lonely."
"It was just, yeah, very easy to operate, I thought. You just go straight in the app and its there."
"I would imagine if you were on your own, this would be the difference as you got worse, between potentially staying at home on your own and having to have full-time care."
"The reception was fantastic. The audio was fantastic. The picture was fantastic."
About MemoryAid
Developed with, and for, people with dementia.
The journey to create MemoryAid began with years of academic research into memory, cognition, and supportive technologies, led by experts at Western Sydney University and Deakin University. We asked people what they actually needed. They told us: make it intuitive, person-centred, and customisable, something that supports independence while keeping social connection alive.
We brought together people with dementia, their care partners, and technology experts to co-design and refine every detail. The result is a device built with and for its users — one that helps people stay independent through personalised prompts and makes meaningful connection effortless with easy video calls.
