Announcements
Share schedule changes, maintenance notices, wellness screenings, reminders, and other timely community updates.
ChimeBuddy is senior living digital signage software for announcements, activity schedules, upcoming events, amenity promotions, live dining menus, birthdays, and videos. Turn lobby TVs, activity-room displays, and community TV screens into an always-current extension of your resident engagement platform for assisted living and independent living communities. On compatible touchscreens, the same display can also become an interactive community kiosk for residents and visitors.
Printed calendars and bulletin boards become outdated the moment an event changes. ChimeBuddy helps life enrichment teams, front desk staff, and community leaders publish current information in a format residents can see throughout the day.
ChimeBuddy now lets a compatible touchscreen do more than display information. Residents and visitors can tap directly into a simple community kiosk to browse activities, dining menus, community news, and amenities, or start visitor check-in. When the interaction is over, the screen can automatically return to the normal digital signage rotation.
The touchscreen interface keeps information large, focused, and easy to navigate while staying visually connected to the community's normal signage.






ChimeBuddy combines live information with professional visual content so the screen remains useful, welcoming, and engaging instead of becoming another static notice board.

Generic digital signage tools often create another content system for staff to maintain. ChimeBuddy is designed to bring together information already used across resident communication and community operations, then make that same information available through the interactive kiosk when residents want to explore it themselves.
ChimeBuddy can turn published dining-menu data into a television-ready slide with the meal period, service time, venue, and menu items. Communities with multiple dining rooms can add one playlist slide for each location.
Shared displays need to keep working after staff walk away. ChimeBuddy includes responsive slide layouts, preserved announcement formatting, adjustable ticker speed, a playback watchdog that helps the player recover from stalled content, and automatic return from kiosk interactions back to the display experience.
Each slide keeps the community identity familiar while giving the main content enough room to communicate clearly.






Digital signage is more useful when it reinforces the same events, amenities, dining options, and announcements residents can find in ChimeBuddy. Interactive kiosk mode extends that connection by letting residents browse the same community information directly from a shared touchscreen. The result is a coordinated communication system instead of isolated screens.
