For residents

Their TV, the way they like it.

Their channel, every morning

The TV comes on and plays what they love. No remote, no menus.

Their own language

Each room keeps its resident's language and favourites, whoever is helping.

Photos and messages from family

New faces and kind words arrive on the big screen, from anywhere in the world.

For your team

Less time on remotes. More time with people.

  • Free accounts for your staffYour team uses the Family TV app to put the right thing on in any room, in seconds.
  • One place for your homeRooms, staff and families in one simple online account, run by your managers.
  • Boxes that arrive readyEach box comes set up. Plug it into the TV's HDMI and power, and it's done.
  • A real person to helpSetup help for your home and support whenever you need it.

For families

Close, even from far away.

Once your home invites them, a resident's family can send photos, videos and messages to their TV from any phone, and put on something they'll enjoy.

🔒 Private by design

  • Families join only when your home invites them, so each resident decides who's on their TV.
  • Photos, videos and messages from families appear on the resident's TV and are never shown to staff.
  • Only adults can be invited to a resident's TV.
  • A data processing agreement for your home, and UK-based support.

Questions homes ask

Do our staff pay?
No. Staff accounts are free. Your home pays per room, with lower prices for larger homes.
What do families pay?
Families invited by your home have their own small subscription, so your home never pays for them.
Can we use the TVs we already have?
Yes. Any TV with an HDMI socket works. You'll need a compatible Google TV box for each room, which we can supply set up.
What about our Wi-Fi?
Each box needs an internet connection. We'll check your Wi-Fi with you before anything is posted.

Bring a little more home into every room.

Tell us about your home and we'll help you start with a few rooms.
