ElderBoard does everything Memoryboard does — and significantly more — running on any tablet, smart TV, or large screen you already own. Family sends photos, messages, reminders, and even background music. Your loved one sees and hears it automatically. Nothing to learn. Nothing to break. No strangers. Ever.
ElderBoard is designed so the person who needs it never has to touch it. Family handles everything from their phone — which is what separates a good Memoryboard alternative from just another app.
Open a browser on any WiFi tablet, smart TV, or screen, navigate to your personal ElderBoard URL, and add it to the home screen. About five minutes, start to finish.
Share your private family access link with anyone you approve — children, siblings, close friends. Everyone can send content. Nobody else can reach the display.
Photos, messages, appointment reminders, visit announcements — sent from your phone, appearing on the display automatically. Your loved one never needs to do a thing.
If you're looking for a Memoryboard alternative, you want to know exactly what you're getting. ElderBoard matches every feature Memoryboard offers and goes well beyond — with a time-aware daily schedule, background music, multiple display themes, and support for smart TV screens of any size.
Send loving messages, medication reminders, or gentle notes. Everything appears in large, warm, easy-to-read text.
Family members send photos from anywhere. They appear beautifully on the display, automatically, with optional captions.
Add upcoming doctor appointments and family visits. They appear on the display as the date approaches — nothing gets forgotten.
Shows the current time, date, weather, and a personalised greeting. Content your family chooses. Memoryboard offers something similar.
The display dims to a quiet clock overnight and wakes automatically in the morning. No bright screens disturbing sleep. Memoryboard doesn't have this.
Pin a cherished photo — a wedding portrait, a grandchild, a moment your loved one connects with deeply — and it stays in the display rotation until you choose to remove it. Memoryboard doesn't have this.
Memoryboard tops out at 15.6". ElderBoard runs on any screen with a browser — tablet, monitor, or the largest TV in the house. For someone with dementia, visibility is everything. Memoryboard can't do this.
ElderBoard knows what time it is — and shows it. "Right now: Lunch. Next up: Medications at 2:00 PM." Family sets the daily schedule once; the display updates automatically throughout the day. Memoryboard has no equivalent feature.
ElderBoard can display a calm, reassuring safety affirmation on screen — a small thing that makes a real difference for someone with dementia who may feel disoriented. Memoryboard doesn't have this.
Family can enable background music on the display — upload a personal playlist of familiar songs, or set a time window for when music plays. Music is one of the most effective tools for dementia comfort. Memoryboard has no music feature.
Choose from six warm color palettes to match your loved one's space and preferences — forest, sky, copper, teal, slate, and pink. The display should feel like it belongs in their home, not like a medical device. Memoryboard has one look.
Family enters the caregiver schedule and uploads a photo. When a caregiver is on duty, the display shows their photo and name — "Your caregiver today is Ann" — so your loved one always knows who to expect. Memoryboard doesn't have this.
A display on a table can become invisible. A 55" TV on the wall showing your loved one's name and a warm greeting in large text — that's something they cannot miss. Because screen size is no small detail. It's the difference between your loved one seeing your messages or having the display fade into the scenery.

ElderBoard is not connected to the internet in any way your loved one can access. Only approved family members can reach the display — which is why families looking for a Memoryboard alternative choose ElderBoard for peace of mind.
Only people you personally invite can send content to the display. No strangers, no public access, no way for anyone to reach your loved one uninvited.
The display shows only what family sends. No browser, no social media, no ads, no news. Nothing from the outside world can reach the screen uninvited.
Seniors are the primary target for online scammers. ElderBoard removes the risk entirely — the display has no browser, no internet access, no way for your loved one to accidentally wander into the open web where scammers are waiting. They see only what family sends. Nothing else exists.
Yes — ElderBoard is a direct Memoryboard alternative that runs on any screen you already own — tablet, monitor, or TV. It includes everything Memoryboard offers plus a time-aware daily schedule, background music, safety affirmation display, caregiver scheduling, multiple display themes, night mode, and visit announcements — at Free beta* versus $175 or more for Memoryboard hardware.
ElderBoard works on any WiFi tablet, smart TV, monitor, or screen with a browser — including a 55" wall-mounted TV. For someone with dementia, a larger screen is genuinely more effective. We recommend at least 10" for a bedside or kitchen setup, and suggest a TV or large monitor for a living room where it needs to be seen from across the room.
No. ElderBoard is a one-time $99 purchase with no subscription, no monthly fees, and no hidden costs. Pay once and use it forever. Like Memoryboard, we believe you shouldn't have to keep paying just to keep your loved one connected.
Nothing at all. ElderBoard is completely passive for the person receiving it. Photos, messages, and reminders appear automatically on the display. There is nothing to tap, swipe, or learn. This is the core design principle — the technology should be invisible to the person who needs it most.
Yes. ElderBoard is a closed system — only people you personally approve can send content to the display. There is no internet browsing, no social media, no ads, and no way for strangers to reach your loved one through the board. It is scam-proof by design.
We offer a 30-day money back guarantee, no questions asked. If ElderBoard isn't the right fit for your family within the first 30 days, contact us and we'll refund your purchase in full.
No tiers. No subscriptions. No surprises. Pay once and ElderBoard is yours forever.

ElderBoard works on any WiFi tablet, smart TV, or screen with a browser. For a living room or shared space, a 40"–55" TV mounted on the wall is hard to miss — and that visibility matters for someone with dementia. A cheap Fire Stick and any smart TV is all you need.
