Lyora

Lyora is an iPad app designed to support individuals living with Alzheimer’s or memory challenges. With the guidance of a caregiver, users can either start from a personal photo or a meaningful prompt. A series of thoughtful questions stimulates memory and helps capture emotional and personal details. Responses are processed by an on-device machine learning model to generate a narrative, which is then visualized using Apple Intelligence’s Image Playground. Caregivers can also record themselves narrating the story, creating a deeply personal audio memory. Users can draw to express emotions or details tied to their memory and revisit a digital gallery of all generated memories at any time. Lyora promotes emotional connection, reminiscence therapy, and creative storytelling—crafted to preserve human stories with dignity and care. Features: - Answer memory-triggering questions with voice or text - Generate illustrated stories from memories using AI - Collaborate with a caregiver throughout the journey - Record audio narration for each story - Create expressive drawings to enrich memories - View and revisit your personalized memory collection Compatibility Notice: Lyora requires an iPad running iPadOS 18 or later with support for **Apple Intelligence** and **on-device machine learning capabilities (MLX)**. Some features—such as AI story generation and image creation—may not be available on older devices.
