Robin Knows: Helping Older Adults Use Technology with Confidence

Today, technology is all around us. For some people, it’s easy to keep up, but for many older adults, it can be a challenge. Robin Knows is a new app designed to help people over 50 use their devices more confidently and safely.

A Mission to Help

The team behind Robin Knows has a simple goal: to help older adults feel more comfortable with technology. They understand how hard it can be for seniors to keep up with all the changes in tech. This understanding comes from their own experiences with their parents and older loved ones.

“Robin Knows is fundamentally committed to empowering older adults with the confidence and autonomy to navigate today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape. We think that it’s of paramount importance to bridge the gap that often leaves individuals over 50 feeling frustrated by technology, isolated, and in turn, vulnerable to scams.”

How Robin Knows Works

Robin Knows is different because it offers personalized help. The app uses advanced AI to assist users with their tech questions. Whether it’s a smartphone, TV, or household appliance, Robin Knows is there to help. Users can ask their questions through voice, text, or even pictures, and the app will provide clear, easy-to-understand answers.

One great feature is that Robin Knows remembers the devices users own, so it can give even more specific help. If the app doesn’t recognize a device, it asks for more details instead of giving a general answer that might not be useful.

Protecting Against Scams

Scams are a big concern, especially for older adults. Robin Knows takes this seriously by helping users recognize and avoid scams. The app has a simple tool where users can upload text, photos, or screenshots to check if something might be a scam. Robin Knows will analyze the information and help users make safe decisions.

The spokesperson from Robin Knows shares why this is important:

“It’s our hope that the service will become a steadfast companion that educates users, helping them understand and navigate their devices confidently and arming them with the information necessary to identify and prevent scams.”

The Story Behind Robin Knows

Robin Knows was created because the people behind it saw their own parents struggle with technology and fall victim to scams. For example, the idea for the app came from the Chief Technical Officer’s experience of trying to help his father with his smart home devices. The scam protection feature was inspired by the Chief Executive Officer’s experience with a family friend who was scammed.

This personal connection makes Robin Knows more than just a tech support app. It’s a companion that cares about its users and wants to help them stay connected with family and friends, enjoy their interests online, and protect themselves from harm.
