Anchorly
Shared dementia care log
Whoever is with Mom today writes down how she slept, what she ate, which doses went in, the hard moment at five o'clock and what helped. Everyone else sees it on their phone or in a browser within the minute. No account, no email, nothing to set up.

Built for the family that shares the care
Dementia care is rarely one person. It is a daughter in the mornings, a son on weekends, a sitter on Tuesdays, a brother two states away who just wants to know how the week went. The handoff is where things get lost.
Logs the day in a tap on the phone: sleep, meals, toileting, wandering, agitation, how the day felt. Marks each dose given so nobody doubles it.
Opens the same log on a laptop with a one-time code. Reads what happened this week, adds Saturday's good moment, marks the evening medication.
Gets the calm card and life story before the first shift, in a browser, without installing anything. Knows what helps when the afternoon gets hard.
What the shared care log keeps
Sleep, meals, toileting, wandering, agitation (calm, restless, agitated) and how the day felt. Two people logging the same day write one entry.
Every medication with its dose and when it is due, and a Mark given tick for today. The phone reminds you at the chosen time.
A hard moment is a trigger, a behavior and what helped, with the time it happened and how intense it was. Over weeks, a picture of the late afternoon forms.
One line each: knew the dog's name, sang along to the radio, laughed at the old photo. Everyone reads them, newest first.
About them, the stories that still land, the names that matter. A new carer reads it before the first shift.
The short list for a hard moment: the song, the chair by the window, the photo album, the words that settle. Readable in any browser.
Open the family log in a browser
A brother, a neighbour or a weekend sitter can open the same log on a laptop or in any phone's browser. Nothing to install.
The life story and calm card are readable in the browser and edited on a phone. The browser never sees the caregiver's own check-ins or photos.
Private by design
There is no account because there does not need to be one. Each phone and browser keeps a full copy. Changes travel encrypted through the Adelyons sync server so the others can fetch them, and nothing else is sent anywhere.
Each caregiver's own wellbeing check-in, the strain and stage check-ins, and photos stay on the phone they were made on. The phone that started sharing can delete the shared copy at any time; a copy nobody has opened for 180 days is deleted on its own. Read the privacy policy.
No email, no password, no contacts permission.
Shared only among devices that joined with a code.
The starting phone removes the shared copy in one tap.
CSV of logs, moments and good moments; a full backup file.
Keep it on your phone
Anchorly on a phone works offline, reminds, and keeps the parts of caregiving that are about you.
Anchorly+ adds the sundowning curve by hour, what usually sets it off and what helps most, a weekly recap and a one-page care snapshot PDF for the doctor's visit.

Questions
One daily record of how the person you care for is doing that every caregiver in the family can read and add to: sleep, meals, toileting, wandering, how agitated the day was, which medications were given, the good moments and the hard moments. In Anchorly it lives on each caregiver's phone and in any browser that joined with a code, so the Sunday sitter sees what Thursday's helper wrote.
On the phone that already keeps the log, open Settings, then Share with family, then Show a code. The other helper scans it with their own phone, or types the same code at anchorly.adelyons.com/app in any browser. A code works once and for ten minutes.
No. Phones and browsers join with a one-time code. There is no sign-up, no email, no password and no contact-list permission.
Fill in today's log (sleep, meals, toileting, wandering, agitation and how the day felt), add good moments, mark medications given, log a hard moment as trigger, behavior and what helped, and read every logged moment, the life story and the calm card. The browser keeps nothing you did not share from the phone.
Working offline, daily medication reminders, a day picker to log an earlier day, a monthly dementia stage check-in laid out like the 7-stage FAST scale, a caregiver strain check-in, a daily wellbeing check-in for you, photos in the life story, and backup and restore. Anchorly+ on the phone adds the sundowning curve, what sets it off and what helps, a weekly recap and a one-page care snapshot PDF.
Yes. Every hard moment is logged with the time it happened, a trigger, the behavior and what helped. On the phone, Anchorly+ draws agitation by hour of the day with the late-afternoon sundowning hours marked, and ranks what usually sets it off and what helps most, from your own entries.
Yes. Add each medication with its dose and when it is due; whoever is there taps Mark given, and everyone else sees it within half a minute, so nobody doubles a dose or wonders whether the evening one went in. The phone can remind you at the chosen time.
Each caregiver's own wellbeing check-in, the caregiver strain and stage check-ins, and photos never leave the phone they were made on. Only the log about the person you care for is shared.
Each phone and browser keeps a full copy. Changes travel encrypted through the Adelyons sync server so the others can fetch them. The phone that started sharing can delete the shared copy at any time, and a copy nobody has used for 180 days is deleted automatically.
The daily log, medications and reminders, the hard-moment log, the life story and calm card, the stage and strain check-ins, CSV export, sharing with family and the web log are free with no card. Anchorly+ on the phone adds sundowning insights, a weekly recap, a care snapshot PDF, photos and more than one loved one.
No. Anchorly organizes and shares what caregivers write down. It does not diagnose, predict or treat anything. Talk to a qualified healthcare professional about symptoms, medications and care decisions.
