Tiina comparison guide
Choose Tiina when your parent wants to ask for help themselves, at home or while out.
At a glance
JubileeTV adds a box to your parent’s TV. You use an app to help them use the TV from far away. They can also see video calls and reminders.
JubileeTV puts reminders on your parent’s TV. A family member sets them in the JubileeTV app. With Tiina, your parent can ask for a reminder themselves. It appears on their phone when alerts are on. You do not have to enter it for them.
Tiina also goes with their iPhone. Your parent can ask a question from the kitchen or while visiting family, without using a TV box. If they want help they can start and use on their own, Tiina is the simpler choice.
