Livindi Home senior monitoring system: LivindiPad tablet, door sensors, multi-sensor, motion sensor and wearable call button

What is a senior monitoring system?

A senior monitoring system, also called an elderly monitoring system or remote monitoring for older adults, tells a family how a parent's day is going without anyone having to call and ask. Most use sensors in the home, something your parent wears, or both, and send what they notice to an app on your phone.

Livindi does that, and it also covers what families often buy separately: a medical alert button, easy video calling and, if you want it, an AI companion. It's one system with one free app for the whole family.

The questions Livindi answers for you

Are they up and moving?

Door and motion sensors show activity around the home. AI learns what's normal for your parent and alerts you when activity patterns change.

Are they eating?

A door sensor on the refrigerator is part of how Livindi notices changes in eating patterns. A sensor on the bathroom door does the same for bathroom patterns.

Are they sleeping?

The bed sensor monitors sleep, pulse and respiration without a wearable, and notifies you when they get in or out of bed. It comes with Max and can be added to any kit.

Is the house okay?

The multi-sensor measures temperature and humidity, and you're alerted if the home gets too hot or too cold.

How do they look?

One tap starts a video call, with captions and an auto-answer option, so you can see for yourself.

Did they fall or need help?

They can press the wearable call button or say "Help Me", and AI is designed to detect a fall. Livindi immediately calls and texts each caregiver.

What to check before you buy any senior monitoring system

Does your parent have to do anything?

Some systems only work if your parent wears something or remembers to charge it. Livindi's door and motion sensors work on their own, and your parent never has to learn anything new.

Who gets the alert?

Some services send alerts to a call center, others to family. Livindi's alerts go directly to your family, so they reach the people who know your parent.

Is there a camera?

Many families don't want one in the house. Livindi has no surveillance cameras. The only camera is the tablet's, for two-way video calls. More on monitoring without cameras.

What does it cost in total?

Add up the equipment, the monthly fee and any contract. Livindi kits are $379 to $999, plus $19 a month ($38 for Max), with no contract.

Can the whole family use it?

When brothers and sisters share the care, everyone needs the same information. Livindi is one free app for the whole family, and you can plan what to do together by video or chat.

Can you send it back?

You won't know if it fits your parent until it's in their home. Livindi offers 30-day returns. See our return policy.

What families say

"It takes the worry away and my 92 year old Mom had no trouble using it... I look in on Mom every day and check in on her when I see things that are unusual like doors opening late at night or she is not drinking or eating."
Steven
"At the core of supporting our Mom (from afar), knowing that she is moving about the house is the key to knowing she is OK and not in distress."
Bob, son of a 90-year-old mother
"I like being able to see when my mother has passed by the motion detector and when people have come in or out of a door - it has helped me identify an issue with movement through the house."
Angela

One thing to know

Livindi reaches your family, not a call center. It doesn't dispatch emergency personnel and isn't a replacement for 911. If you want trained operators around the clock, a professionally monitored medical alert service does that, and you can use one alongside Livindi. See how Livindi compares.

How much does a senior monitoring system cost?

Livindi Studio is $379, Livindi Home is $479 and Livindi Max is $999. Studio and Home are $19 a month, and Max is $38 a month. There's no contract and you can cancel anytime.

Does my parent need to learn new technology?

No. The door and motion sensors work on their own, and your parent never has to learn anything new. They never have to touch the tablet either, it can answer automatically and respond to their voice if they need help.

Can I monitor my parent from another state?

Yes, it was designed for that. Sensors in your parent's home show you their daily activity, the free Livindi Helper app alerts you when something changes, and one tap starts a video call.

How long does setup take?

Livindi arrives preconfigured and sets up in minutes. Sensors go on doors and walls.

Does it work without WiFi?

Kits use your parent's home WiFi. If there's no WiFi there, call us at (508) 416-6030.
