For folks interested in technology that helps to keep our less-technological relatives connected, I highly recommend NanaGram[0].

I’ve been a paid user since the early days and it’s an absolute delight to my grandmother every single time it shows up during the month.

1. Register and get a unique phone number to text

2. Start sending photos to that number via SMS

3. Share the phone number with other relatives and tell them to do the same

4. Grandparent gets envelope of printed photos just like the ones filling their old albums on the shelves

It really is that easy. It’s affordable. And the founder is very responsive to any support inquiries.

It was a service I always wanted to build myself but never had the time. I’m very grateful for it.
