A calm, large-print companion app for older adults: medication and task reminders, weather-aware garden and home care plans, and a read-only Circle of Care that keeps family in the loop without taking control away.
Golden Nest is built for seniors who want to stay in their own homes — often after losing a spouse who used to handle part of the household. The app turns everyday responsibilities into gentle, well-timed reminders and step-by-step guidance, while adult children and caregivers can follow along from their own phones. We built the product end to end: the iOS and Android app, the backend with schedulers and push notifications, subscriptions, the marketing website and a series of narrated video tutorials.
Most productivity and health apps are too dense for older users: small text, hidden menus, jargon. At the same time families want reassurance, but seniors don't want to feel watched. The product had to cover medications, chores, gardening, meals and money in one place — and still feel simple on day one.
We designed every screen around one clear action, large type and a “?” help button that explains the screen in plain language. Life areas are packaged as optional modules that generate their own tasks — gardening plans even react to the local weather forecast. A separate Viewer role gives family members read-only access to tasks, medications and mood, plus the ability to send a friendly nudge.
Everything for the day on one calm screen — and reminders that arrive exactly when they are useful.
The home screen greets the user by name and shows the local weather, today's tasks grouped by area, medications and a one-tap mood check-in.
Set the dose, pack size and meal time once. Golden Nest reminds at the right time, keeps a history of every “Taken” and counts the tablets left in the pack.
One-time, daily, weekly, selected days, every few days or monthly — with up to three reminders and the choice to edit just one day or all future ones.
Large text setting, big tap targets, plain-language labels and a help button on every screen that explains each option.

The Circle of Care keeps relatives informed — without taking independence away.
Pick a person from the phone book, choose the relationship — child, caregiver, doctor — and Golden Nest sends an email invitation.
Family members sign up as Viewers and see tasks, medications and mood in read-only mode, so nothing can be changed by mistake.
If something is still pending, a viewer can send a gentle reminder instead of calling to check in.
The senior decides who joins the circle and can remove access at any time.
