Inspiration
Our inspiration came from home by watching our elders or people around us who have weak memory and sometimes have no one around them to help. Therefore, they can use Memory Mate to schedule weekly or daily reminders and add family members to their reminders. In case their family member has some reminder for them (For example: Grandma take your meds) they can add directly to the family members reminders.
What it does
Target Audience: Elders with dementia, Alzheimer's, memory loss or similar issues but not limited. Memory Mate makes app navigation easier for first-time users with fun colours and bold text. Elderly tech amateurs who feel unsafe using technology can get exposure by adding reminders and adding a family member who can send them reminders in case they forget themselves
How we built it
Native iOS app (Xcode, Core DB) Node.js express API (JavaScript) **Twilio SMS API to send invites to family members **GitHub - Collaboration link Figma - Prototype Illustrator - Icons, Logo
