Who is Amara for?

Who is Amara for?

Amara is for parents and grandparents who like to talk but don't want much to do with smartphones and tablets. Amara Home is a voice-controlled tablet with its own dock: everything works by voice. Usually the family sets Amara Home up.

Amara is a good fit if

  • your parents or grandparents live alone or as a couple and often spend the day on their own
  • technology gets in the way more than it helps
  • you want to hear from each other more often as a family, even if you live far apart

What you need to be able to do

Talk. No reading, typing or swiping needed.

Is there a minimum age?

There's no age limit.

What about dementia or care needs?

Amara isn't a medical device and doesn't provide care. Whether Amara is a good fit depends on the person. Feel free to message us before you order, and we'll figure it out together.

When Amara isn't the right choice

When someone needs care or an emergency call service. That's what home care services and home emergency call services (Hausnotruf) are for. Amara can't replace them.
