The day, one MESSAGE at a time. One simple board.
MessageHome is a simple, dedicated home tablet designed to help your family safely support, guide, and stay connected with a family member who has learning difficulties or disabilities.
Direct Ownership & Independence
Empowers your family member to take control of their daily routine by organising tasks, chores, and appointments into a clear, manageable schedule.
Positive Reinforcement
Boosts daily motivation and engagement through rewarding visual celebrations whenever tasks are completed.
Health & Wellbeing
Fosters confidence and personal well-being by encouraging healthy daily habits and self-reliance in a safe environment.
Grows with Their Skills
Easily adjust settings and app features over time to match their developing confidence and abilities, offering more freedom as they master new skills.
What the board actually does
Shared Family Support
The MessageHome App is managed directly by your family, offering complete flexibility in how you share the role of supporting your family member.
Personalised Setup
The app is fully customisable to suit the individual. You can tailor the setup around their specific learning needs, choose custom emojis, and set up rewarding visual responses when tasks are completed.
Flexible Communication & Urgent Alerts
Your family care network can send tasks, appointments, and voice reminders using the dedicated App, or via standard messaging platforms like WhatsApp and Telegram.
Direct Screen Updates
Every update is sent straight to the tablet screen, making it effortless for your family member to see what's next without needing to open or navigate any apps themselves.
Simple One-Tap Responses
The individual can easily confirm completed tasks by tapping a Mark Done button. Once selected, a custom animated emoji chosen during setup appears to celebrate their progress.
Easy Mood Tracking
Each day, your family member can select a sad, okay, or happy emoji to share how they are feeling—or tap a simple "Please call me" button. You can easily customise how often these check-ins appear to suit your preferences (such as once, twice, or three times a day).
Built to lower the effort, not add to it
Nothing here needs configuring by the person the board is for.
Not a replacement for care
It's a calm way to show a routine and a gentle nudge if something's missed — not supervision, and not a substitute for the visits and care already in place.
Any screen
Runs on a spare tablet or old laptop, or a ready-to-go tablet from us that shows nothing but the board.
Who runs it
Family or a support team set the weekly routine and carer photos from a simple dashboard — nothing technical.
Routine changes are easy
Items can be daily, certain days, or just once — edited any time, without rebuilding the whole week.
Reminders that reach a real person
A missed item quietly lets a family member or support worker know — it doesn't just sit there unread.
Locked down to just the board
No app drawer, no notifications, no wrong tap landing somewhere confusing — nothing else is reachable.
Arrives ready to go
Signed in and already working — just switch it on, connect to your wifi. Plug it in and it's a message board, not a device that still needs setting up.
One less thing to worry about
A lovely board on the shelf, not one more gadget that could go wrong or get confusing to use.

Quick replies within one working dayFAQ
Who sets up the weekly routine?
Whoever manages the dashboard, whether that's a family member, or a support worker, or both. It takes a few minutes a week to keep it current, and changes for just one day are just as easy as changing the whole routine.
Is this a replacement for a carer or support worker?
No, and we're careful about that. It's a calm way to show a routine and a gentle nudge if something's missed, not supervision, and not a substitute for the visits and care already in place.
What if the routine changes day to day?
Items can be set for every day, particular days of the week, or just once and edited any time from the dashboard. A changed plan for tomorrow doesn't mean rebuilding the whole week.
What happens to the schedule and carer photos?
They're visible only to people approved on that board's dashboard, never sold, never used for advertising, and never shared beyond the family or team who set them up.
