Lantern

Lantern is a calm, dignified daily orientation app for people living with dementia, built together with their carers.

Each day opens with one simple screen — the day, the date, the time of day, and today's plan — so a person always knows where they are in their day. Carers set gentle reminders and appointments, and can check in from a distance to see how the day is going.

What's in Lantern:
• Today — day, date, time of day and a simple plan for what's coming
• Reminders for appointments and daily routines, set by a carer
• A shared calendar for appointments, including repeating ones
• Optional, consented location sharing so a carer knows their person is safe
• Works for one carer or several, all seeing the same circle

Lantern has no adverts, no trackers and no in-app purchases. It was built by Sentrixa, a UK company, with input from carers and the people they support.

Location sharing is optional, switched on only with explicit consent, and can be turned off at any time — see our privacy policy for the full detail.
