The new GrandCare Companion iOS/Android app extends instructional videos, task reminders and quick access to remote supports beyond the home.

MILWAUKEE, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- GrandCare Systems today announced the launch of the GrandCare Companion App, giving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities a way to take their personalized GrandCare tools and supports with them to work and activities throughout their community.

For more than two decades, GrandCare's interactive touchscreen and connected sensors have helped individuals build independence and enabled teams to deliver personalized remote supports at home. Now, the Companion App puts these tools in an individual's hands beyond the home.

Available for iOS and Android, the app connects with an individual's in-home GrandCare touchscreen, extending key features to their smartphone. Individuals can access daily task lists, schedules and medication reminders, check off completed tasks, and connect with designated support staff.

"For someone building independence, support shouldn't stop at the front door," said Laura Mitchell, CEO and co-founder of GrandCare Systems. "We designed the GrandCare Companion App to provide even more self direction and choices, no matter where they are."

The GrandCare Companion App helps individuals to:

• Stay on track: Access personalized tasks, schedules and medication reminders.
• Build independence: Check off completed tasks in real time and practice managing daily routines.
• Stay connected: Request assistance or initiate a video chat with designated support personnel.
• Learn new tasks: Access work- or community-specific instructional videos and task lists to promote success and independence.

By combining the powerful in-home GrandCare system with a portable mobile companion, GrandCare can seamlessly bridge the gaps between being at home or within the community.

The GrandCare Companion App is available now for iOS and Android devices for individuals with an existing GrandCare system. To learn more or request a demonstration, visit www.grandcare.com or call 262-338-6147.
