Keep Close Contact Version 1.1 the Remote Caring Solution Available Now on the App Store

Keep Close Contact is the app that assists people care for others when they are unable to be physically with them. Keep Close Contact provides "Touch Free" video calls to assist people with limited mobility, a large "Help! Call Me Now" button, extra large text messages, scheduled reminders for medication etc., picture slideshow of favourite photos and auto alerts if messages are not acknowledged.

​​​​​​​Wyari Pty Ltd is proud to announce that the latest version of it's Keep Close Contact remote assistance solution for carers is now available for download on the App Store. The app is deigned for iPad, iPhone or iPod touch running IOS 8 or later.

Keep Close Contact allows people who are caring for others to keep in touch with them in a minimally intrusive manner while they cannot physically be with them.

As the aged populations of many countries are getting larger it is essential that we create some tools to assist carers (usually the adult children) to easily keep in contact with people they are caring for and have peace of mind that they are OK when they cannot be there. This type of carer usually has a busy life already looking after their families and working so any tools like Keep Close Contact can lessen the load. 

With Keep Close Contact carers can

* Start free secure private video calls - all the person being cared for needs to do is speak, no button pushing or hunting for the phone, getting out of the chair etc.
* Send reminder messages for regular events such as medication, meal times and appointments. These can be scheduled or ad-hoc
* Define alerts if messages are not responded to within pre-set times, critical when you need to know if someone is up and moving or has taken their medication
* Remotely upload cherished pictures to create a digital picture frame whilst there are no messages being displayed
* Keep updated and in control from their iPhone or iPad anywhere in the world where they have internet access

The app user interface is designed for people unfamiliar with modern technology, in operation it only has two "buttons" which are easy to see, and messages are large and have high contrast.

Once the app is downloaded, the carer subscribes using iTunes In App Purchase and an account on the Keep Close Contact servers is created. All the settings are then made via the "Designed for Mobile" web pages so the career can choose to use whatever device they are most comfortable using. 

To provide extra security two separate secure connections that follow different paths are maintained between the device running the app and the Keep Close Contact servers.
