Everything MyFamilyPulse Does

Built for grandparents, parents, and anyone who wants to stay close to the people they love — without learning new tech.

📸 Stay Connected

Picture Wall

Every loved one's face on one screen. Tap to call — no menus, no hunting for numbers.

Family Tree Layout

Spouses sit next to each other, kids below. Show just one son's family or the whole tree.

Call Now (one tap)

Tap a face and the phone rings through. Works on phone, tablet, or desktop.

Meet Now — Video

One tap sends a Whereby video link by SMS: 'Let's video chat in 5/10/15/30/60 minutes.'

🎂 Birthdays, Anniversaries & Greetings

30-Minute Video Window

New

Before each birthday/anniversary message goes out, you get a heads-up SMS + email with a one-tap link. Record a quick video — we embed the thumbnail in the email. No time? The message still sends 30 min later.

Personalized From Your Notes

New

The top 2 lines of each person's Notes become bullet points inside the greeting — 'two things that make you special to us.'

Birthdays & Anniversaries

Every date you enter triggers an automatic greeting on the day — SMS + email.

Your Message Library

Four warm/playful templates ship by default. Edit them, add your own, set a favorite.

Graduations & Milestones

First communion, graduations, retirements — track them all and celebrate on time.

Yearly Remembrances

Honor those we've lost with a quiet yearly note to the family.

⏰ Personal Reminders

Medication Reminders

"Take BP meds at 8 AM daily" — pinged by text + email so Mom & Dad never forget.

Recurring Check-Ins

"Call Mom every Sunday at 6 PM" — daily, weekly, or monthly, your call.

Appointments

"Doctor follow-up — 1st Monday" — recurring or one-time, all in one place.

Errands & Events

"Pick up the cake — Sat 2 PM" — tiny reminders for the things that slip through.

Hi Em,

Love, Grandpa
One tap to call. One tap to add a birthday video. That's it.
If Grandpa can tap a photo, Grandpa can host a video call — and send a birthday video.
