You're visiting someone you love, and you're not sure what to say. ReelLife Conversations turns a family photo into an easy way in. The app shows suggested conversation topics based on the people, places, and details in your photos, so conversations flow naturally without the pressure of finding the right thing to say. It gently supports name and place recall, helping people with dementia feel reassured and engaged rather than anxious about getting something wrong. ReelLife Conversations is for: • Family members, who want meaningful conversations but sometimes feel stuck • Care professionals, who may not know a person's background or life story • Visitors, who want to connect without causing stress or confusion If a face or place isn't recognised, the app offers alternative prompts linked to details in the image and smoothly guides users to the next photo, keeping things natural and unhurried. These one/two word prompts can be used as basic ideas for you to build on, or if you need a little more support, simply click and a full sentence conversation starter will appear for you to use. We include a curated photo collection featuring familiar public figures and imagery from the 1980s to today, free for 7 days. Once subscribed, you can upload your own photos via our Family Admin Portal for a fully personalised experience, or continue using the provided collection. Built on decades of reminiscence therapy research and designed with accessibility principles for cognitive decline, ReelLife Conversations puts emotional wellbeing, an often underserved part of dementia care, at the centre. Subscription required after the 7-day free trial. Subscription includes: • Personalised photo conversations using your own images or the provided collection • Name customisation for a familiar experience • Comfort photo feature for reassurance Subscription details: • Title: ReelLife Conversations • Length: Monthly auto-renewing subscription • Price: $9.99/month (price may vary by region) Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
