USER´S GUIDE #1.- PAIRING DEVICES
Activity patterns contain your relative’s daily activity.
Social&Care compares user’s real activity with the predefined one, and informs you about their location and tasks.
To do this, it´s really important that your smartphone and user’s device must be paired
- DOWNLOAD Social&Care
- CREATE ACCOUNTS
- ACTIVATE YOU ACCOUNT
Download Social&Care on both your smartphone as on the device of the person you want to care for.
You´ll have to create an user´s account for you and another one for the person you want to take care of.
In the Social&Care login screen, please click on CREATE ONE button, as shown in the image on the right.
Fill in the form with your contact details
Indicate the information about the person you want to take care of
Check you email. You will find there the Social&Care validation account message
In the activation email you will find the user code (pairing code) for the person you want to take care of.
This code is the user code for your loved one
Now, from your own device, you could manage and maintain Social&Care parameters without your relative having to do anything.
USER´S GUIDE # 2 .- I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING

Social&Care recognizes user’s voice commands
If user clicks on the microphone icon (in the top-right of the screen) and says: “I want to go to …” + LOCATION
Social&Care will open the smartphone’s MAPS App prepared to guide the user to LOCATION
For this reason, we recommend naming the locations in the same way as the user does.
Social&Care uses the device’s Map app. This application maintains all its functionalities, among which we recommend:
– You can search by address, by GPS coordinates or by POI (Points of interest)
– If you cannot find the address you need, enter a nearby address you know and press where you want to set the location for two seconds.
Press Select
USER´S GUIDE # 3 .- Social&Care WILL REMIND THEM THEIR TASKS
Social&Care allows you to define users´ tasks schedule with the activities they have to do.
Social&Care will remind users (and you too) when they have a task to do.
If the task has a location associated (must be made in that fixed location), Social&Care will inform you if the user is in the right place at the right time.
- SELECT USER
- CREATING TASKS
- TIPS
On your smartphone, select Settings from the Social&Care main menu
Press on the name of the person you want to take care of.

SELECT the TASKS button on the User Settings screen (as you can see in the image below).
The list of TASKS you have created for the user will be displayed, a similar screen to the one you can see on the right
Press on the ADD TASK button, as you see in the image on the right
Let’s to create a new Task
Social&Care will remind pending tasks to users. Please provide a description that they can easily recognize
If users have to perform the task in a specific location, indicate it.
Click on the LOCATION field and select one of the locations you previously defined
Examples of tasks to do in a location are:
– Put the washing machine at home
– Go to the doctor in the health center
Pattern sets up the repetition of the task so Social&Care automatically includes it in the user’s schedule.
Let’s look at the elements of the pattern:
Start date
First day when the task will be included in the user’s schedule. Task will be done at the time indicated in this field.
Ending date
If the task has to be made continuously between two dates and you know the end date, indicate that value in the End Date field. Otherwise, it is not necessary to complete this value.
Repeat
Days of the week the user has to do the task.
Examples of pattern can be:
– Everyday
– Weekdays
– Monday Wednesday and Friday
– etc.
With this information, Social&Care will generate the repetitions in the user’s schedule.
Check in the user’s schedule that the events have been generated according to your needs.
Repeat these steps for each user task.
Create all the tasks your relative must or can do
The more tasks you define, the more information you’ll get
Social&Care will remind users pending tasks.
If the description of the task is known by the user, the reminder will be much more effective
Task may not have a pattern, if we do not know when the user will do it.
Actions such as visiting a relative or walking in the park are tasks that users can do whenever they want.
For this type of tasks, variable tasks, it is not necessary to indicate a pattern. It would be enough by specifying the description of the task and the location where has to be performed.
These variable tasks (tasks without pattern) do not appear in the user’s schedule. Social&Care will detect when users are in a location linked with a task, associating them this task automatically and informing us immediately.
Tasks such as going to the cinema, going to my son’s house or visiting a museum are examples of these variable tasks
