Ask a tech expert: How can I make it easier for my mom with dementia to find her shows?
Our mother has dementia, and the TV patients use at their home is connected to a cable system. Is there a simpler solution than having them select an input and then finding a station they want to watch? I know we are not the only ones going through this. So frustrating.

What a pain, Todd. You’re a good son to try to make this easier for her. I found an excellent solution for you: the SofaBaton X1 universal remote control.
It’s a programmable universal remote that simplifies life with one-touch activities. Press a single button and control your TV, stereo, whatever.
- Massive code database: This thing is compatible with 500,000+ home entertainment devices.
- Personalized one-touch activities: Create custom shortcuts so she only has to hit one button.
- User-friendly design: Navigate with a scroll wheel, a two-inch display screen and backlit buttons.
- App for iOS and Android: Control devices from your smartphone.
- Voice control: Integrates with Alexa for hands-free function.
- 3-in-1 wireless hub: Supports IR, WLAN and Bluetooth connectivity.
- Long-lasting rechargeable battery: Up to 60 days of standby on a single charge.
I hope this helps and I wish your mom well.
