### 2/5 — Not for later stages

*2025-09-30, version 1.57.37*

Don’t bother downloading if you are a caregiver to someone in later stages. Apparently we don’t need help and support when they end up in a facility.

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2025-05-13, version 1.55.1*

I was nervous to open this app. I thought it might tell me things I wasn’t ready to hear. But it didn’t do that.

The app explained things in a way that made me feel calmer and more in control. That meant a lot.

If you’re worried, like I was, give it a try.

### 5/5 — Helpful!

*2025-05-08, version 1.53.18*

I found this app easy to use and full of wisdom and practical advice.

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2025-05-08*

This app with its focus on early stage information for people who are newly diagnosed, was just what I needed. It’s easy to use, quick to get started and helped me to find resources and information easily. My favorite part of the app is the videos of people who are newly diagnosed talking about what was helpful for them and what their reactions were. They are so brave and such an inspiration. I found new info on medications and also links to services I could use.

### 5/5 — A light in the dark

*2025-05-02, version 1.53.18*

Having a parent with dementia is hard. Trying to navigate their care is even harder. This app is so helpful navigating the journey. Thank you to the Alzheimer’s Association for all that you do!
