Support Gentle Dusk

Gentle Dusk is free to use. Donations are optional and help keep this calm, burnout-aware caregiver tool available without ads or pressure.

It was built by a caregiver for families supporting dementia, Alzheimer's, and hospice care. The app stays private and local-first so you can track behaviors, steady your own wellbeing, and find patterns without worrying about your data.

If Gentle Dusk helps you breathe, notice triggers, or feel less alone during caregiver burnout, a donation helps cover hosting, secure email links, and ongoing improvements focused on emotional support.

Why Gentle Dusk exists

Gentle Dusk exists because caregiver burnout is real, especially in dementia and end-of-life care. Most days you need something quiet that lets you keep going without feeling watched or sold to.

This tool will never diagnose or gate features. It helps you notice behavior patterns, remember what happened, and protect your own emotional bandwidth while doing hard, invisible work.

What feedback helps most

  • What felt confusing, unclear, or harder than it needed to be
  • What unexpectedly helped — even in a small way
  • What you wish existed in moments that feel overwhelming
  • Anything that felt emotionally heavy, stressful, or draining

You don't need to write well. You don't need to explain everything. A sentence or two is enough.
