How to install
Step 1:
Senior initiates the app on his/her device and invites the caregiver
Your aging loved one must install the SimpliTend app on his or her smartphone, create an account, and provide caregiver's* contact information. SimpliTend will then send the caregiver a secure email with a time-based, one-time password.
​
Please keep in mind that the apps require both the senior and the caregiver to be registered.
(*) Only one caregiver can be selected
Step 2:
Caregiver installs the application on his/her device
After receiving the SimpliTend invitation email, the caregiver can install the app and create an account. The caregiver will then be asked to enter the one-time password and pay the subscription fee. Once completed, the caregiver's and senior's phones will be synced, allowing the caregiver to review his/her loved one's profile and receive notifications.
​
Please keep in mind that the apps require both the senior and the caregiver to be registered.
Our Story
Keep your loved ones at home
Caring for elder parents is a 24/7 job, and most family caregivers are working full-time, and some have family of their own to care for. I learned this when my mom was diagnosed with Parkinson disease 11 years ago and my sister and I had to care for her since my father was too old to help. At the time, my sister was working full-time, and I had just started my first startup company. Assisted living or Nursing home care was not the answer due to high cost, our unique cultural obligations, and the fact that my mother preferred to stay with family. Our story is not unique, most family caregivers have similar responsibilities. Being at work or at your children’s activities, you always worry if loved ones are safe, taking their medicine on time, are back home from their daily walk, or worse, they are being hassled by a sales call or a scam email.
​
We at SimpliTend understand the difficulties of caring for our loved ones, and our mobile applications are designed to keep caregivers informed while keeping our loved ones feeling independent and safe. Our goal is to keep the elderly with their families and delay the need for an assisted living or nursing home until there is a valid health reason.
Listen to what our community has to say.
The SimpliTend one-of-a-kind dual mobile application ensures seniors' safety and independence while providing family caregivers with peace of mind!

What is SimpliTend application?SimpliTend is a mobile application designed for seniors and caregivers. The app's function is to keep seniors safe while providing caregivers with peace of mind. The senior app safeguards them by including two preprogrammed, easy-to-find buttons on the home screen. One provides turn-by-turn directions to their home and the second button is an emergency SOS button that connects to 911 or a pre-assigned contact in case of an emergency. Your older loved one may utilize their preferred apps and stay in touch with their friends and family while being safe thanks to the app's removal* of bloatware, blocking of robocalls* and blocking of spam text messages. The senior's smartphone and the caregiver app sync over the cloud, enabling the caregiver to receive activity alerts and medication reminders via the senior's phone. The software will also let the caregiver know if a family member has strayed too far from home or activated the emergency SOS number. * Performance may vary for Andriod or IOS applications
-
How much does SimpliTend cost?All features are included in a single monthly fee of $5.95 paid monthly or annually. The Senior and Caregiver applications are intended to function as a single connected application. After installing both applications, the caregiver is directed to pay the subscription fee.
-
How can I cancel my subscription?The caregiver can cancel the subscription from the senior profile >> subscription plan. After canceling your subscription, please delete the app from both caregiver and senior devices.
-
How does the application whitelisting work?The SimpliTend software allows users to choose their preferred apps from their smartphone. Only the specified apps will be displayed in the SimplITend APP screen to the senior, reducing bloatware and clutter. The user can always add more apps to their whitelisted list of apps from the "Frequently used app" settings. The user will see this behavior for devices with the Android operating system. For the Iphone the device will display all apps, however, the inactive apps are grayed out.
-
How does white listing of contacts work?This feature allows the user to add up to ten friends and family contacts to their SimpliTend contact list, including their caregiver. The Android user can only receive calls from the ten contacts registered in the SimpliTend contact list. All other calls are blocked, resulting in fewer spam calls, robocalls, and unwanted phone calls. Please keep in mind that iPhone users can also receive calls from contacts on the SimpliTend contact list. Similarly to the Android operating system, all other calls from the phone contact list will be prohibited. However, the IOS operating system does not block unrecognized or spam calls.
