### 5/5 — Invaluable bit of kit 👍🏽 10/10

*2023-01-08*

We were fortunate enough to have this during the pandemic , our parents have dementia and this has allowed us to keep in touch regularly, send pictures of family and provide text message reassurance and support support. Great bit of kit can’t fault it. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

### 5/5 — Komp om contact te houden met oma

*2023-01-07, version 2.10.99*

Komp geeft ons de mogelijkheid om oma toch te betrekken in het sociaal leven van haar (klein)kinderen. De zoon in Zweden belt via de videocall en de leukste foto’s van uitstapjes, natuurfoto’s, spreuken, mopjes, etc kan door iedereen gepost worden. Met verschillende rechten voor alle gebruikers en meerdere beheerders mogelijk. En het belangrijkste…. Oma hoeft niets te doen. Alles komt automatisch op haar Komp-TV. Geen gedoe met gsm/apps. Enkel WiFi is noodzakelijk.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2022-07-01, version 2.10.7*

For OAP , KOMP is brilliant , I have no other words , if your thinking about it , do it !

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2022-06-05*

Komp is brilliant. My Grandma lives on her own now, this is a brilliant way to keep in touch and share photos with her. Since most of my family and I don’t use FaceBook any more, this is also a nice way for us to see what we’re all up to!

Few suggested improvements, in no particular order:

1) Dark mode for the iOS app
2) Ability to view pictures in a slide show
3) Tap to zoom on pictures
4) Upload multiple pictures at once

### 5/5 — Fantastisch toestel

*2022-06-02, version 2.10.5*

Bij begin Corona aangekocht, maar we gingen dit zowieso aankopen, ook zonder corona, omdat ik op afstand van mijn moeder woon (zij is in bejaardenhome). Fantastisch toestel daar ze zelf niks moet doen, en je als beheerder alles zelf kan bepalen. Heel eenvoudig om te bedienen, op te starten, en bij probleem goede support van team👍. Heel tevreden van aankoop. Wel vrij duur, doch aankoop waard. Opgelet in rustoord, deden in begin moeilijk rond privacy van medewerkers (echt belachelijk) maar compromis gevonden ( niks met toestel te maken).tijdens Corona was dit de enige mogelijkheid om mijn moeder te kunnen zien en spreken, ideale oplossing. Heel blij met aankoop!👍

### 5/5 — A life saver, no seriously

*2022-04-16*

This is a must have if you have an elderly relative. My grandmother is happier and feels closer to the family. I also feel she remembers much more, peoples names, and events.

She watches the screen all the time. 

Amazing, amazing, amazing. 

We purchased out right, so we only pay the contract for 4G connection. Very affordable per month.

### 5/5 — Brilliant for communication

*2022-04-07*

We bought this device for our elderly mother during the pandemic snd it has been a real game changer. Mum loves seeing us, it is so much better than a phone call and the ability to send photos and messages keeps her stimulated and involved. The quality of the screen is great and it is so simple to use. I recommend it to anyone with parents who have got beyond being able to use computers or mobile devices.

### 5/5 — KOMP

*2022-04-01*

An absolute lifesaver for our family. Dad is in a care home which is regularly in lockdown still with Covid - every time staff or residents have Covid, Dad gets no visitors and is not allowed out his room for 2 weeks! I really don’t think he would have the will or the fortitude to get through these fortnights had it not been for the Komp enabling us to “pop in” for a virtual natter, send him photos and text messages to keep his spirits up. Every care home resident in the UK should have one in their room!!

### 5/5 — Brilliant.

*2022-03-24*

If you have got to communicate with someone who can’t or won’t engage with modern technology this is a great solution.

### 5/5 — Fantastic product

*2022-01-04*

Shortens distance between people, especially for those that struggle with technology

### 5/5 — Fantastic solution for elderly living alone

*2021-11-21*

My brother recently installed this for our elderly mother who has memory loss issues and can no longer use her iPad or her mobile phone. She lives in a care home and we have been reliant on calling the staff who take the unit phone to her. With Komp we are now independent, able to contact her and see each other on screen whenever we want, the video call connects automatically and my mother does not need to press any buttons! I live abroad and she has not been able to see my children for more than a year in person, but now she loves seeing them on the screen. The sound and vision quality is great and it’s an added bonus to be able to send her photos and messages that appear on her screen. Would be great for anyone needing to remind elderly parents to take their medicine for example. Thank you Komp!!

### 5/5 — Life changing

*2021-11-02*

The genius of simplicity. Has connected a very old lady living on her own with numerous health challenges back with her family. Can’t recommend it enough

### 5/5 — Window to the world

*2021-10-04*

Before we discovered the KOMP device, I had long wished that just such a thing would come along and thanks to No Isolation, my wish eventually became reality.
If you are an elderly, or disabled person for whom using a PC, laptop or notebook for communications is difficult and for whom a mere telephone cannot provide the pleasure of face-to-face contact with friends and family, then KOMP is the answer.
Supremely simple and fuss free to use (no technical knowledge or experience required), the KOMP allows you to enjoy chats with loved ones at any time you wish as well as the possibility of seeing their photographs and receiving text messages on screen.
All of this is done on a high quality stand alone screen (very similar to a smallish TV).
When friends call, as long as you have the unit switched on you will hear a countdown tone for 10 beats along wit the name of whoever of your invited friends (no strangers can call you) then you will see them and be able to talk to them as a video call.
It’s simple, reliable, trouble free and great fun and it’s the perfect answer for maintaining contact without the hassle of computers, mobiles and other such devices.
I had one for my bedbound mum-in-law and I also have one for my own mum. Both families are great fans of the KOMP and during the current crisis it became even more essential than normal. Will would never want to be without this device and I cannot recommend it highly enough!

### 5/5 — Toll umgesetzt

*2021-10-02*

Das ist genau das, was wir für unsere Mutter gesucht haben. Das Gerät macht genau das, was in der Beschreibung steht, nicht weniger und in dem Fall, vor allem nicht mehr. Wenn das auf Eure Situation passt: Kaufen!

### 1/5 — Unusuble desktop app

*2024-07-26, version 2.16.0*

Even after numerous updates it never connects and crashes every time I attempt to make a call! the mobile app works okay but dont use the desk version

### 1/5 — Zwangsweise Angabe der Tel.-Nr geht garnicht

*2022-07-21*

Als erstes muss ich meine Telefonnummer angeben, damit der Kundendienst mich anrufen kann 😳. Das geht garnicht und ist für mich ein KO Kriterium, da ich nicht weiß wie sicher meine Telefonnummer verwaltet wird und  ob diese evtl. missbraucht wird.
Ich habe mir die App nicht weiter angeschaut und sofort deinstalliert. Ich möchte vermeiden dass irgendwelche Anrufe an meine Angehörigen gehen. Stichwort: Enkeltrick.

**Developer response:** Danke für Ihre Rückmeldung. Datenschutz ist uns äußerst wichtig und Ihre Daten werden sicher verwaltet. Ihre Telefonnummer wird ausschließlich für den Support verwendet, wenn Sie Unterstützung benötigen und wir würden niemals plötzlich Ihre Familie anrufen. Wir werden unsere Formulierungen in der App überprüfen. Einen schönen Tag noch!

### 2/5 — Granny loves it but we hate the app

*2022-08-19*

Having to upload and crop each photo individually makes sharing anything an absolute chore - wouldn’t go through the effort for anyone but my grant 😅 No sharing direct from photos app either. No excuse for the app to be such a pain to use after so long on the App Store

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your feedback! We are taking your suggestions in to consideration when further developing the app.

### 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! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

### 4/5 — Keeping connected

*2023-07-24*

Great way for the family to keep in touch with my Mother as she does
not use the internet or a mobile phone
She really enjoys seeing new photos of her great grandchildren

**Developer response:** That's wonderful to hear! We're delighted to be a part of helping your family stay connected with your mother and bringing joy through photos of her great-grandchildren 😊

### 4/5 — Room for improvement

*2022-03-06*

Initially, like most people, impressive and ideal for old people who, for one reason or another, can’t or won’t operate an iPad. However, an obvious improvement would be to allow people to post video as well as pictures. Is this upgrade in the pipeline?
Why are we limited to 100 characters per text?

### 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%

### 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. It’s wonderful to know that it’s made such a positive impact across distances. We appreciate you sharing your experience, and we hope more people in the UK discover how great Komp is!

### 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!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2023-12-05*

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!

### 5/5 — Mutter ist jetzt immer dabei

*2023-08-13*

Es ist klasse, dass wir sehr einfach auf große Distanz mit Mutter besser kommunizieren können. Und das Handling ist total einfach. Eine großartige Erfindung!!!

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank! Es freut mich wirklich zu hören, dass es Ihnen hilft, besser mit Mama zu kommunizieren 😊

### 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

### 5/5 — Komp

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you so much for your positive review! We're very glad you can be part of your Mum's life through Komp. All the best, Lizette

### 5/5 — The best gift we have given our Mom and ourselves

*2023-04-06*

The Komp has been a blessing for our whole family. Secure and easy to use for everyone. Mom loves it. We share photos and notes as well as face to face conversations and she doesn't even have get up off the sofa. It's easy and perfect for her, and for us to. Thank you!

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you so much for your 5-stars and lovely review! We're glad to hear Komp can make a difference for your family. All the best, Lizette

### 5/5 — Lifeline for non-tech users
