If you are not an Admin, please await an invitation email before signing up.

Loved One

The Loved One sits at the heart of the App.

An Admin will be allocated (typically a close family member) to support with setup of a Loved One. 

Whilst sharing images and videos with the Admin and Family and Friends, it is anticipated that the Loved One will feel more connected with their loved ones.
