## What is Komp?

This is the app you use to manage content on a Komp. Komp is a one-button screen enabling seniors to stay connected with their family. Komp is tailored for seniors with limited digital skills and decreased eyesight, hearing or physical functioning. The senior only has to switch it on or off. Family or friends take care of the rest from this app.

When you open the app, you have to enter the Komp keyword. If this is the first time starting Komp, the keyword will be visible on the screen. You will have to be nearby Komp to configure it. If Komp is already configured, you will have to be invited to get access to it. 

You can use this app to send photos, text messages, and start video calls.

### 5/5 — Game changer

*2026-04-04*

This has been a
Life saver for the years my elderly mum has had it. She has vascular dementia but has lived at home as this has helped make many things so much easier. Now she is in a home we still have it but use it
More for photos and messages rather than calling
Her. Recommend 100%

### 4/5 — Top!

*2025-03-10, version 2.16.1*

Mijn moeder van 91 jaar zet alle dagen haar Komp aan , ze ziet dan eerst de datum en daarna het weerbericht wat goed is voor haar geheugen. Wij ( de familie ) sturen constant foto’s naar haar over wat er in ons gezin allemaal gedaan word , zo blijft ze bij. Voor oudere mensen vind ik het echt een fantastisch product! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

### 5/5 — Keeping in touch

*2025-02-26*

Komp has literally been a life saver as it has helped my mum who has dementia be able to remain engaged with family and friends, she was struggling with remembering how to use a handset phone. The fact that we call her and can be on a call for as long as needed is amazing, and as she doesn’t have to do anything makes it even easier. I also use it to talk to her carers which is great. The picture and message feature is brilliant; we post pictures of events and family members which helps mum remember and gives us something to talk about. I’ve told numerous family and friends about Komp and recommend it to professionals. Thanks Komp you’ve made dealing with mum’s diagnosis much easier.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your heartfelt feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that Komp has been such a valuable tool for keeping your mum connected with family and friends. We truly appreciate you recommending Komp to others – it means a lot to us! Thank you again for sharing your experience.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-11-15*

Nothing in the UK is as good as Komp.
Our neighbour told us about Komp and our whole family - from Orkney Islands to the South of UK are able to easily Video and call with Mam in Northumberland.
We and Mam are very happy with Komp.
We were amazed that this invaluable Komp is not more widely known about in the UK.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your amazing feedback! We’re so happy to hear that Komp has helped your whole family stay connected with your Mam.

### 5/5 — Worldwide family network

*2024-06-09*

I’ve told so many people about the brilliant KOMP !
My mother is in her 90s and partially sighted.
KOMP allows our family to share their days, check how she is, drink tea “ together” on the live chats, send quick messages.
It is reliable and simple to use. Wonderful kit!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your lovely feedback! We’re thrilled that Komp has helped your family stay connected with your mother and that it’s simple and reliable. We appreciate your recommendation and are so happy to hear it’s been a wonderful tool for you!

It’s helping us with medication and meal management but also given mum so much enjoyment as e can send messages and photos. She actually said she feels as though she has family with her all the time as our faces move across the screen and the pictures change regularly. Thank you for a wonderful piece of equipment as she found t manage FaceTime or wassap.

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your positive experience! We're thrilled to hear that Komp is bringing joy and a sense of connection to your mom's daily life. If you have any further feedback or questions, feel free to reach out. Thanks for being a part of the Komp community!

She really enjoys seeing new photos of her great grandchildren

### 5/5 — Roy’s lifeline

*2023-06-07*

We purchased the Komp subscription in 2020. Occasional teething problems and loss of connection from time to time but this has been a lifeline between my family and my father in his care home throughout lockdown. We still chat every day and he has been able to watch his great grandson develop from a newborn in 2020 to now. Little Henry has got to know dad this way where he might otherwise have been a stranger. Dad is now unable to walk so the family can come to him and send him photos of their lives. I don’t know what we would do without it. I can monitor dads moods and physical health and chat to his carers as they pop in with his tea etc. these things would be impossible on a normal phone call. I do wish I could post videos of Henry’s development but we watch them on my phone when I visit. There is a slight drawback in that he is immobile so the Komp must remain in exactly the right place to see him in his armchair. If the cleaner moves it by mistake I can’t see him fully. But we have guide tape on the floor and table to show where things need to be.  I’m amazed there are no other residents or indeed anyone I’ve met who has even heard of the Komp. I feel like an unofficial ambassador for the company as I tell people how wonderful it is whenever I meet someone who might benefit. Thank you so much. Diane Gittings.  From Kent and Sussex in the UK.

**Developer response:** Dear Diane, thank you so so much for this incredible review and sharing your personal experience with Komp. The whole team is so happy to hear your dad can follow Henry's development through Komp. These stories mean a lot to us. All the best, Lizette
