Why are dementia clocks helpful?

Disorientation can lead to repeating or neglecting tasks, leading to feelings of anxiety for individuals with dementia and their loved ones. Dementia clocks provide clear visual cues about the time, day, and date, which helps with orientation and daily structure.

Medication & appointment reminders

Help your loved one stay on track with reminders for medication, appointments and everyday tasks, sent remotely through the Companion App.

Messages, notes & photos

Share messages, updates and family photos straight to the clock. Unlimited family members and caregivers are able to connect through the free Companion App, wherever they are, helping your loved one feel reassured and supported throughout the day.

Video calling with automatic connection

+ -

Stay close with simple video calls from the Companion App, with Automatic Connection offering extra reassurance if your loved one doesn't answer. Premium subscription required (£14 / $19 a month).

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Idem Smart Clock help someone living with dementia?

+ -

It displays a clear, easy-to-read time, date, day of the week and time of day. Caregivers can send reminders, notes and messages in real time through the free Companion App, making it easier to manage daily routines.

Is the Idem Smart Clock suitable for my loved one?

+ -

The Idem Smart Clock is best suited to people living with mild to moderate dementia who may experience forgetfulness or confusion around daily routines, and benefit from reminders for medication, appointments and everyday tasks. It works best for someone who can engage with a simple touchscreen with some caregiver support. For people who may find a touchscreen or connected features difficult to use, a simpler clock from our Day Range may be more suitable.

Can caregivers manage the clock remotely?

+ -

Yes. Caregivers manage settings, reminders, events, messages and notes through the free Companion App, with no limit on how many caregivers can be added — though designating one primary caregiver is recommended.

Is the clock suitable for people with sensory impairments?

+ -

Yes. The large, high-contrast display supports visual impairment, adjustable volume levels support hearing impairment, and the read-aloud feature helps with both.

Do I need Wi-Fi?

+ -

No subscription is required if you have Wi-Fi. Without Wi-Fi, an optional mobile data plan is available.

How many people can access the app to manage the clock?

+ -

Multiple users can access the app, allowing for coordinated caregiving efforts. There is no limit to the number of caregivers who can manage and send reminders or messages through the app. However, we recommend designating one person as the primary caregiver to ensure consistent communication and management.

What languages are supported by the Idem Clock and Idem Companion app?

+ -

The Idem Smart Clock can display and read aloud content in English, Spanish, Italian, Arabic, Vietnamese, Mandarin, Cantonese, Portuguese, German, Dutch, Filipino and French.
Personalised messages and notes can be sent in any language, and you can even include emojis.
The Idem Companion App and clock settings are currently available in English and French only.

Does the clock support video calling?

+ -

Yes — video calling is available on all Idem Clocks with the premium subscription (£14 / $19 a month), along with the option to enable Automatic Connection so calls are never missed.
