Below the card are quick actions for the things you'll do most:

  • Add someone else — add another loved one to care for.
  • Add events — appointments, refills, and reminders.
  • Manage documents — scan, import, and organize files.
  • View all notes — everything you've jotted down.

Getting around: the four tabs

The bar at the bottom of the screen is how you move through the app:

  • Home — your loved ones and quick actions.
  • Calendar — appointments and reminders on a monthly view.
  • Documents — every file you've saved, searchable in one place.
  • User — your profile, shared access, and settings.
