### 5/5 — Essential Tool for Family Caregivers

*2026-01-12, version 2.1.2*

Caring village is the tool I wish we had 20 years ago when caring for our grandmother. It has now become a lifesaver in keeping the family informed and actively engaged in caring for my mother-in-law. From the shared calendar, to private messaging, to medication management, to secure document storage, and more. It’s the only tool we’ve found that helps our large family,that’s spread across the country, organized.

### 5/5 — This app carried me through one of the hardest seasons of my life

*2026-01-07*

I spent the last few years caring for my mom while she was living with stage 4 lung cancer. Nothing truly prepares you for how overwhelming caregiving becomes — emotionally, physically, and mentally. Every day felt like a juggling act: driving back and forth for chemotherapy, managing medications, updating advance medical directives, coordinating travel so she could see friends and family, scheduling physical therapy, managing oxygen equipment, dealing with insurance and deductibles, and trying to secure medical appointments months in advance.

It was exhausting. And often, it felt very lonely.

Caring Village brought calm and clarity into a situation that otherwise felt like constant chaos. The medication management section alone was a godsend — one less thing to keep in my head when I was already running on fumes. Having a shared calendar to coordinate tasks gave structure to days that felt overwhelming, and being able to communicate with the caregiver we hired in the later months — all in one place — made an enormous difference.

What mattered most was the peace of mind. Caring Village helped me feel supported, organized, and less alone at a time when everything felt heavy. It dramatically lowered my stress and allowed me to be more present with my mom, instead of constantly worrying about what I might be forgetting.

This app is clearly built by people who understand caregiving not as a checklist, but as a deeply human experience. I’m profoundly grateful it existed when I needed it most.

Thank you, Caring Village.

### 5/5 — Game changer for my sanity

*2025-12-13*

This has been a game changer for my life. I have been balancing care for elderly in-laws and my special needs child. Too much. To keep up with own my own. This app helps keep me organized and helps keep everyone invested up to date with what going on with our loved one. It also makes asking for help so much easier.

### 5/5 — The App we have been looking for

*2025-12-06*

This is an amazing app!! Caring Village eliminates the stress of manually making sure everyone knows what the person’s needs are and ensures medication is given at correct times.  A definite game changer in taking care of your loved ones!!

### 5/5 — Everything in One Place

*2025-12-06*

My family uses Caring Village every day. It is so convenient to have everything we need in one place. It has saved us numerous times and makes managing the care for our special needs Grandson so much easier. Thank you Caring Vilage!

### 5/5 — Caring Village app

*2025-12-05, version 2.1.1*

The Caring Village app has made my life so much easier as I can document my healthcare visits and information. Highly recommend this as it is well put together.

### 5/5 — It takes a village!

*2025-12-03*

I highly recommend Caring Village for families to use when coming together in care of a loved one. I never got to use all of its vast capabilities with mom passing so fast, but I was able to see the value in this app for the short time I did use it. It was helpful managing her medical documentation as well. I can see how it can help families navigate caring for family members tremendously.

### 5/5 — Helpful tool

*2025-12-02*

I wish a tool like this was around when I was navigating the unfamiliar and difficult world of caregiving for a sick parent. Great idea to have everything centralized and easily accessible to everyone in your “village.” This will help a lot of people.

### 5/5 — A Vital Hub

*2025-12-02*

I’m just starting the journey of caring for my elderly mother and it is daunting, even for a health professional like me.  Caring Village is an excellent app that acts as the central hub for coordinating the care of a loved one.  Appointments, meds, advice, health status — everyone in the family (or whomever you specify) can go and check what’s going on by using the Caring Village app.  It is also a great place to learn about all the myriad resources available out there because we can’t do it alone.  Thank you Caring Village for being there for us every step of the way.

### 5/5 — Great app! Much improved

*2025-12-01*

Really loved what they have done with this app in its latest version. Wonderful interface and easy to use whether you are medically inclined or not. Great to share with family and get everyone aligned. It’s nice to see developers getting into this space cause it really needs help and support for a growing segment of the population. Looking forward to more advances by this app!

### 5/5 — I can't imagine caring for a loved one without this app!

*2025-11-21*

Being able to use the app to coordinate various activities and responsibilities while caring for my father with dementia made things so much easier for us during this difficult time.

**Developer response:** We are glad you were able to find our platform useful during those difficult times. Wishing you and your family well.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-10-11, version 2.0.2*

This is very helpful and highly functional app to keep everything in one place. Great tool to have handy.

### 5/5 — This app right what I need

*2025-10-06*

I am so happy I came across this app. I am still learning how to use it but I am pleased with what I see so far, exactly what I was looking for - rich funtionality, great user experience and seperior customer service! I simply love it!

### 5/5 — A Lifesaver for Families and Caregivers

*2025-10-05*

Caring Village has been such a game changer for our family. It keeps everyone on the same page — from appointments and medications to simple check-ins — all in one place. I love how easy it is to share updates and feel connected, even when we can’t be together.

It’s clear this app was designed by people who truly understand what caregivers go through. The layout is simple, the tools are practical, and it brings real peace of mind during stressful times.

If you’re caring for an aging parent or loved one, Caring Village is an absolute must. It’s thoughtful, easy to use, and genuinely helps lighten the load.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review. We strive to make the lives of families less stressful. We are always here if you have any questions. Thank you

### 5/5 — Caring Village works

*2025-09-29*

I used this app a couple years ago, and it was excellent.  As things progressed with my dad, unfortunately, the time passed where we used it actively.  A couple years later we are now caring for our mom, and so we immediately knew where to go.  Caring Village keeps us connected.  The app is great -- easy to use, and it clearly was built to do the things we need the most.  The name is right on -- it does take a Village to care for a family member, particularly as they become ill as a senior.  The various doctors, hospitals, EMRs (electronic med records), patient portals, pharmacies, etc. all seem to have their own way of doing things, and if there's one MAJOR lesson I've learned ... it's up to the family to play quarterback.  If we don't do it, then it doesn't get done.  Caring Village has been a tool that allows us to do that a lot easier, and for me and my 2 brothers to stay connected (the 3 of us are the key members of the village honestly, but docs and other folks are extended village members to us).  5 stars, and thank you Caring Village!

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2025-09-13*

I’ve been using Caring Village for years and found it quirky but essential. The latest update created a lot of issues. It seems to be made with AI in mind and not well tested. Journal entries take multiple attempts to load and changing repeat events is challenging. The iPhone version looks good but the iPad version is clunky and images don’t load properly. I can’t get the desktop version to even load. There are a lot of good features but this version should have been tested more before release.

### 5/5 — Excellent app!!

*2025-09-12*

What an amazing app for caregivers!  Everything you need all in one place.  Reminders for meds, area for tasks and to dos that can be delegated to others, information on proper paperwork to have in place, and even an AI capability to ask pertinent questions regarding care.  I love it!  What will they think of next?  Oh and the support team is very helpful and efficient.  Thank you Caring Village team for making our lives easier!

### 1/5 — Total scam

*2025-11-24*

The initial reaction was very positive albeit there were numerous functional issues. But a couple of weeks after inviting members and uploading documents, members reported not being able to access the site. When I as administrator checked, I received notification that I needed to upgrade and pay in order to have more than TWO members, ie administrator plus one. I was never notified that there were any tiers nor restrictions on use. Now all the uploaded documents have disappeared and the work that all of us contributed is gone.

**Developer response:** I am so sorry you missed the free preview emails that get sent after sign-up. Your documents are still safe and secure and you will always be able to use Caring Village for free with one additional member. We will reach out to you separately to assist however we can.

### 1/5 — Want this to work!!

*2025-10-27, version 2.0.2*

Really want this one to work, has almost all the features I’m looking for. Most disappointing is how poorly the calendar (doesn’t) work. Fix the calendar connection and it has the potential to be great!

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-10-20, version 2.0.2*

Trying to create a task, just didn’t work

### 1/5 — Wonky Interface

*2025-06-16, version 1.6.9*

I think this app must require an update. I am unable to sign up due to the interface blocking everything with the keyboard. As soon as I try to enter my information the keyboard covers the screen and it’s impossible to hide the keyboard in order to enter the next required info, email, first and last name, password… etc. looks like a good idea but hey… update it to work with current Apple iOS?

### 1/5 — Buggy for iPhone

*2022-03-31, version 1.6.9*

Couldn't copy paste secure password in when creating account.  
Couldn't choose time zone when creating "village" account.  
Since I couldn't move forward and my xword wasn't secure enough (was going try to change once in app), I deleted and gave up.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2019-12-15*

Calendar sync is super buggy. Repeats some multiple times and doesn’t show others. Creates false sense of visibility. Notifications are also unclear.

### 1/5 — Impossible to use

*2019-03-13, version 1.5.1*

I downloaded this app in preparation for surgery. I sent the appropriate links to my friends and family. No one of them was able to use it. Most people couldn’t even sign in and when they could the calendar/scheduling function was a total fail. 
Their customer service is also pretty nonexistent. I do not recommend it.

### 1/5 — Great but I wish it had 2 more features

*2019-01-19, version 1.5.1*

This is a great app for the whole family to help my grandpa. I wish it kept pending volunteer requests on the dashboard and while you can have repeating events you can’t have more than one person sign up. For example, we have a recurring event to take him to the store. It would be great to be given the option to claim one or all recurring events.

It would be really helpful to have the ability to print the calendar for the elderly family member.

### 1/5 — It’s really buggy!

*2018-07-30*

It’s a great idea, but other than the cool video, nothing seems to work. I wouldn’t trust my loved one to this app

### 1/5 — Calendar

*2017-10-18, version 1.3.6*

Calendar doesn’t open and freezes the app on iphone7. Please fix ASAP!!!!!

### 5/5 — Great at coordinating care across multiple people

*2026-04-29*

Caring Village makes coordinating care across multiple people super easy. Schedules, medications, and updates are all centralized so you’re not chasing texts, emails, or trying to remember who said what. It’s simple to use, which matters when the last thing you need is another complicated system.

What’s made the biggest difference for us is staying connected as a family. We have people in different states, and this keeps everyone in the loop without constant check-ins or confusion.

It's the best app there is for this kind of thing right now.

**Developer response:** We are so happy that you are able to stay organized with Caring Village. We are always here for you if you have any questions at all.

### 5/5 — One of the smoothest apps I’ve seen

*2026-04-17*

Very clean and intuitive interface, excellent support team, and handy features for almost every one of our caregiving needs. Highly recommend

### 5/5 — Such a helpful app

*2026-04-15, version 2.1.4*

This app is so helpful and a life changer!

### 5/5 — Brilliantly Helpful

*2026-04-15, version 2.1.4*

I’ve been waiting for something like this and it’s just so well done. So thankful. Good job.

### 5/5 — A simple tool that made caregiving easier!

*2026-04-15*

Caring for a loved one can feel overwhelming, but Caring Village has made it so much more manageable. Everything is in one place—appointments, updates, and communication—so nothing gets missed.

It’s helped our family stay organized and connected during a really emotional time, and that peace of mind is everything.

Highly recommend if you’re navigating caregiving.

### 5/5 — Super helpful for caregiving

*2026-04-13*

Caring Village makes it easy to stay organized and keep everyone on the same page. Sharing updates, schedules, and tasks is simple and intuitive. It really relieves the stress from caregiving. Definitely recommend if you’re coordinating care with family or friends.

### 5/5 — Eight Isn’t Enough

*2026-04-10*

We set up Caring Village for my family of 8 siblings to help monitor and manage our parent’s health. This site has everything we need and is so simple to use on your laptop, iPad or phone. The journal feature allows each of us to capture with our visits or calls with our parents to share with the family current health issues or follow up from doctor’s appointments. It’s so much better than just texting each other. We also use the Calendar feature to track appointments so that one of us can join them in person or on a call to make sure we capture all the notes for reference. The ability to upload documents and maintain all the information on each of their various Drs makes it really easy for us to coordinate. Most importantly, the team at Caring Village, particularly Linda, has been amazingly responsive whenever we needed clarify a process or make suggestions for improvements. Caring Village has been absolutely perfect for our family to be actively engaged in our parents health.

### 5/5 — Caring Village is awesome

*2026-03-21*

I’m very grateful for the Caring Village team and their support. Having REAL PEOPLE available who were quickly responsive and helpful as I navigated the platform was very reassuring! The site itself is thoughtfully organized and clearly built to support families coordinating care.

### 5/5 — Genius

*2026-02-22, version 2.1.3*

They thought of everything!  An absolutely divine and must-have tool for families separated by distance while co-caring for loved ones.  Everyone knows what’s going on and is on the same page.  What a relief.  Thank you Caring Village!!

### 5/5 — Fantastic App.

*2026-02-22, version 2.1.3*

So wonderful to have an app that allows you and your family to get the care you need for a family member on multiple levels.
