The app to help family caregivers get practical and emotional support as they care for someone at home. We mobilize friends and family to provide support through a long-term illness/disability, short-term surgery, or life transition (having a baby, grieving, adoption/fostering). The next time someone asks, “Let me know how I can help!”, caregivers can answer, “Join my ianacare team!”.

The free ianacare app coordinates practical support (meals, rides, respite care, child care, pet care, house errands) and keeps everyone updated in a private feed. No more spreadsheets, sign up emails, or intrusive group texts to keep up with. Invite friends, family, neighbors, co-workers, professional caretakers, and anyone who wants to help. We make it super efficient and clear, so everyone stays connected without the burden of back-and-forth logistics.

Anyone (care recipients, caregivers, and supporters) can start a team. Supporters can join the movement to #JustShowUp by starting a team for a caregiver and committing to one act of support.

As a caregiver/care recipient:
- Request specific types of help without the burden of managing individual responses.
- Update everyone on one platform. No more multiple group text chains.
- Allow supporters to offer help that you can easily respond to with one click.
- Invite and manage your team from your mobile contacts.
- Keep track of everything on your synced calendars.

As a supporter:
- Offer help you know they would appreciate, but may never ask for.
- Stay updated on their care progress and show your emotional support by responding with hugs and comments.
- Immediately know what their most important needs/requests are & easily sign up to help with no additional communication needed.
- Manage your alert settings, so you can focus on the types of help you can offer - and not get bothered by the rest.

The small acts of support make a huge difference! IANA = I Am Not Alone.
