What is KinectedCare?

KinectedCare is a privacy-first caregiver app that helps a family look after a parent who lives independently — coordinating everyone in one place and alerting the whole team at once when they press HELP.

The short answer. KinectedCare is a privacy-first app for iOS and Android that helps a family look after a parent living independently. A private CareTeam shares a daily snapshot, notes and a CareLog, and is alerted at once when the person presses HELP.1 Care coordination is free.

Updated October 2026.

When a parent starts living alone, the worry rarely has a single owner. One sibling fields the phone calls, another drives over on weekends, a neighbor keeps an eye out, and everyone wonders the same quiet thing: is Mom okay right now? KinectedCare exists to answer that question — calmly, continuously, and without turning anyone's home into a hospital.

How KinectedCare supports independent living

Instead of an unfamiliar pendant and a base station, KinectedCare uses the devices your family already carries. The person being cared for uses the app on their phone and can add a smartwatch1 for daily activity; everyone else uses the app on their own phone. Together they form a private CareTeam that shares a daily wellbeing snapshot, notes, and a CareLog — and that's alerted at once when the person presses HELP.

One app, one role you choose

There's a single KinectedCare app on iOS and Android. When you first open it, you choose your role — caregiver or care receiver — and the app shapes itself around how you'll use it. No separate downloads, no confusing versions.

Why families choose KinectedCare

It's free to coordinate care, the safety layer is an optional subscription priced for your country, and your family's health and location data stay within your CareTeam, with consent. It's built to be readable by someone in their eighties and reassuring to someone three states away. That balance — dignified for the person being cared for, genuinely useful for the family — is the whole point.

Set up your family's CareTeam in minutes.

Free to start on iOS and Android — no pendant, no contract, no waiting.
