Frequently asked questions

Many family members want to help but don't know where to start. CircleCare makes it easy by giving everyone visibility into what needs to be done. When tasks are clear and contributions are visible, people are more likely to participate — whether you're caring for a parent, spouse, child, or anyone else.

The key to dividing caregiving responsibilities is clarity and fairness. CircleCare helps by making all tasks visible to everyone, allowing care team members to claim tasks based on their availability and proximity. The app tracks who's doing what, so everyone can see contributions.

Often one person carries more of the caregiving because there's no clear system for sharing responsibilities. Without visibility, others may not realize how much is being done. CircleCare solves this by making all caregiving activity visible to everyone in the circle.

CircleCare is built around the care itself—a shared calendar, medication tracking where each dose is confirmed by the person who gave it, and an activity feed the whole circle can see.
