Tendermind is a digital personal assistant and visual planner designed to help people with neurological differences and cognitive challenges manage their daily routines, increasing their independence and wellbeing, and leaving them more time to do meaningful and fun stuff.
The app assists with timeline comprehension, schedule management, task management, transitions between activities or events, and unplanned schedule changes.
We have designed it with people with various neurological and cognitive challenges and disabilities in mind, especially autism and intellectual developmental disability, as well as dyslexia, dyspraxia, and ADHD. Through its innovative design it can also be used by people who cannot read or write and those who are non-verbal.
The app has two interfaces. One is an admin interface for the parent, guardian, or other carer. The other is an end-user interface for the child or adult under your care.
To get started the parent / guardian / carer should download the app to their phone and open it. You will be prompted to create an account and once complete, to set up an end-user profile. Its possible to set up more than one end-user profile for additional end-users.
The admin can then immediately start creating the end-users schedule, tasks, and alerts.
In the settings section (accessed by pressing on the gears icon on the bottom of the screen) the admin can ensure the end-user has the best and most suitable experience for their needs by adjusting default settings.
The app should also be installed on the end-users device and then choose the option (at the top of the screen) to set it up as an end-user app. Follow the instructions and you are ready to go.
Currently the app is in pilot / beta stage and is free to use. Please visit our website www.tendermind.ai for more information.
