How Tovage Nest works

A steady screen for the senior. A helpful view for family.

Tovage Nest brings a few everyday touch points together on the senior screen, with selected household controls in a separate caregiver portal.

The senior screen

A few clear choices, close at hand.

The date, local time, and time of day stay visible above large, high-contrast buttons. The Today button opens the daily schedule. Medications opens the medication flow, where the senior can confirm a dose.

A caregiver can send a reminder for the senior to see. If the household has chosen a Today in Photos image, that photo and its optional caption can appear on the home screen.

The Call and Photos presets are present, but their destinations are unfinished; they are not shown here as working actions.

The caregiver portal

Small ways to help from your own device.

A signed-in caregiver paired with a senior and with active household access can use these controls:

  1. 01

    Arrange the familiar buttons

    Move the four preset choices into an order that feels right for your household. Their names and destinations stay the same.

  2. 02

    Send a short reminder

    Write a one-off note of up to 240 characters. It appears on the paired senior screen.

  3. 03

    Choose a Today in Photos image

    Pick an image already available to the household and add an optional caption for the home screen.

  4. 04

    See what has been shared

    Review recorded medication confirmations, along with the senior’s shared journal and activity.

The caregiver can reorder the preset buttons, but cannot rename or replace them, edit the senior’s schedule, or change medication entries.

Current call status

The trusted-caller list is saved caregiver setup.

Caregivers can save numbers as allowed or blocked for the household. Live inbound calls are not screened today: no VoIP provider is connected, and a provider connection is required before live screening can become active.

A clearer day, one step at a time.
