Family Beacon Mobile

Keep your loved ones in the loop — even if they don't use iMessage. FamilyBeacon lets your family send messages, photos, and links directly to an iPad. Messages appear the moment they arrive, with no tapping required. Perfect for parents or grandparents who prefer a tablet over a smartphone. For senders (iPhone) - Compose messages with text, photos, and links - See when your message was read - Send photos and URLs directly from the share sheet, without opening the app For the receiver (iPad) - Messages arrive automatically — nothing to tap, no app to open - Works in Guided Access mode for a permanent kitchen-counter or nightstand display - Tap any link to open it in your browser Private by design FamilyBeacon uses iCloud to sync — your messages never touch a third-party server. Invite family members with a single link; only invited people can send.
