What is Amara?

What is Amara?

Amara Home is a voice-controlled tablet with its own dock. Your parents or grandparents do everything by voice: they just talk, and Amara listens and answers. You and the rest of the family join in through the Amara Family App.

What that looks like day to day

  • Talking: telling stories, asking questions, chatting. Amara listens and answers.
  • Staying in touch: calls with the family, photos and messages.
  • Keeping track of the day: reminders for appointments and birthdays.
  • Listening and playing: radio, podcasts and games like Solitaire, Sudoku, Memory and Quiz.

Everything works by voice. There are buttons and a menu too, but you don't need them.

Good to know

Amara doesn't replace visits or phone calls. Amara is there for the hours in between.
