Ageing & Care

Stay organised.
Stay in control.

Keep important documents together, remember renewal dates and share selected information with the people you trust. Your privacy and independence stay yours.

Life changes

You can plan ahead without handing over control.

Ageing often means managing more information, more appointments, more providers and more paperwork. Lyff helps keep it together without turning your private life into a shared folder.

Independent now

Keep your own information organised, private and easy to update while you manage things yourself.

Ready if support is needed later

Put trusted roles in place and decide in advance which selected information may be shared now or released later.

What can go in Lyff?

The information that becomes harder to manage when it is scattered.

Start with what would be most useful to have in one place.

Health & medical

Medication, allergies, conditions, hospital details, doctors and other health information.

Care information

Aged-care providers, assessments, support services, care preferences and practical arrangements.

Legal

Copies of powers of attorney, wills, directives and details of where original documents are held.

Financial

Insurance, superannuation, advisers, accounts and other useful financial information.

Home & household

Property information, utilities, services, pets, maintenance and household instructions.

Important people

Family contacts, doctors, advisers, providers and the people who may need to know where information is.

Less paperwork to keep track of

Life gets busy.
Reminders help.

A renewal notice on the kitchen bench. A policy in your email. A care document on your phone. Bring them together and add the dates you want to remember.

See How Reminders Work

Take a photo and save it

Use your phone camera or choose an existing file. Photos are compressed before upload, and files are encrypted on your device before they are sent.

Give important dates a reminder

Add an expiry, renewal or review date. Choose reminder times and repeat annually for yearly renewals.

Keep the details up to date

Edit dates and reminders in Document details. Turn reminders off whenever you want, while keeping your saved dates.

How it works

Organise it. Choose your people. Control access.

Lyff is designed to be useful now, not only later.

1

Add what matters

Store documents and record the information you want kept together.

2

Choose trusted roles

On a paid plan, appoint a Guardian and, where useful, a Custodian. Appointment alone gives them no vault access.

3

Decide item by item

Keep information Private, Share Now, or prepare selected items for Release Later.

Your information. Your decisions.

Being prepared does not mean giving someone access to everything.

On a paid plan, choose access item by item. A plan membership or trusted role never gives someone access to your whole vault.

Private

Keep it for you.

Private items remain subscriber-only and are not available to Guardians, Custodians or through the Release Process.

Excluded from trusted-role access and release.
Share Now

Give access now.

Give your active Guardian or Custodian immediate access to one selected item.

Choose View only or View & Download, with optional expiry.
Release Later

Prepare selected information for later.

Designate specific items that may be released following verified incapacity, passing, or both.

Evidence and human review are required.
Trusted people

Put support in place without giving up privacy.

A Guardian or Custodian is a trusted role with only the access you specifically authorise.

They only receive access to selected information where you specifically authorise it.

Guardian

A trusted personal role such as a partner, adult child, sibling or close friend.

Custodian

A named professional, such as a lawyer, accountant or adviser, whose professional check must be completed before their role becomes active.

No automatic access

Adding either role does not give them permission to browse or search your vault.

If support is needed later

Release Later is reviewed. It is not triggered by inactivity.

Not logging in, missing a Check-In or being inactive does not give anyone access to your information.

1

A request, with an immediate alert

Your active Guardian or Custodian requests release inside Lyff with fresh MFA. You receive an immediate email and SMS alert. This alert does not start the seven-day period.

2

Identity and evidence checks

Guardians complete an identity check for each release request. Custodians skip that step. Lyff reviews the supporting evidence against your Release Later instructions.

3

A formal notice starts seven days

Once the evidence is accepted, Lyff sends a formal notice by email and SMS. The seven-day Release Review Period starts when that notice is sent.

4

Final review and separate approval

Release requires a final staff review and approval from a different manager. The end of the waiting period never releases information automatically.

You can select “Stop this release” at any time before release. Signing in alone does not stop a request. Only the items assigned to that requester and event can be released. Private items are excluded.

Lyff Check-In

A reminder to review your information.

Every six months, Lyff can remind you to check whether anything in your life has changed.

It is not a welfare check and it is not a release trigger.

Review documents, contacts and permissions.
Update information when circumstances change.
Missing a Check-In does not contact your Guardian or Custodian.
Missing a Check-In does not release vault information.
Want some help?

You do not have to set everything up alone.

Lyff Concierge offers optional paid guidance from a human team member to help you understand onboarding and vault setup. Availability depends on your selected plan.

Your Concierge uses demonstration materials and dummy documents. You do your own uploads and configuration; the Concierge cannot view or interact with your vault contents.

Lyff Concierge

A real person to guide you through getting started. Concierge provides setup guidance, not legal, financial or medical advice.

Common questions

Ageing and care, without the jargon.

Is Lyff only for people receiving aged care?

No. Lyff helps you organise important information while you manage your own life, as well as prepare selected information in case support is needed later.

Can I upload documents from my phone?

Yes. Use “Take a photo” to open your phone’s rear camera, or “Choose a file or photo” for PDFs and existing photos. Photos are compressed before upload, with the before and after size shown and an option to retake. Files are encrypted in your browser before upload.

Can I start on my computer and upload from my phone?

Yes. The desktop “Upload from your phone” button shows a QR code. Scan it, sign in on your phone with your password and MFA, then upload. Desktop drag and drop handles one file at a time.

How do document reminders work?

Add an optional “Expiry, renewal or review date”. Choose 60, 30, 14 or 7 days before, or a custom date. The defaults are 60 and 14 days, with an optional “Repeat annually” checkbox. You enter the date; Lyff does not automatically renew a policy or service.

Can I change or turn off reminders?

Yes. After upload, a confirmation shows the reminders set. Use Document details to edit the date and reminders or turn them off. Settings can turn off all reminders while keeping the dates. Free includes reminders on its five documents; paid plans include them on all documents. No document reminders are sent during the grace period, and reminder emails contain no file contents or sensitive details.

Does a Guardian or Custodian automatically see my information?

No. These roles are available on paid plans, and appointment alone gives no vault access. You authorise selected items through Share Now or Release Later. Private items remain outside both.

Can my partner and I use the same plan?

Yes. Complete Duo covers two adults and Complete Circle covers up to four adults. Each adult has a separate account and private vault. To share a selected item with your partner, appoint them to an active trusted role and set the item’s sharing permissions.

What happens if I stop logging in or miss a Check-In?

Nothing is automatically released. Check-In is a six-monthly review reminder, not a welfare check. Missing it does not contact your Guardian or Custodian, trigger recovery or change permissions.

Does signing in stop a release request?

No. You must explicitly select “Stop this release” before release occurs. An immediate request alert is separate from the formal notice that starts the seven-day Release Review Period. Final staff review and a different manager’s approval are still required.

Can I schedule an audio or video message for family?

Yes, on a paid plan. Upload MP3 or M4A audio, or a video up to 250 MB, and choose a delivery date. Messages send at 9:00am Sydney time. The recipient’s access lasts 90 days after delivery, and they can download the files. Scheduled messages continue to send during the grace period. These are date-scheduled messages, not messages triggered by incapacity or passing.

Is a Lyff Care Card the same as my vault?

No. The optional Care Card opens a separate, read-only Emergency Profile containing fields you choose to make public. Anyone with its QR code or link can view those fields without signing in. The profile is encrypted at rest but is not zero-knowledge encrypted. Its scan page cannot open your vault.

Can someone help me set Lyff up?

Yes. Optional paid Lyff Concierge provides human onboarding and setup guidance, subject to your selected plan. Demonstration materials are used; you upload and configure your own information. The Concierge cannot access your vault contents.
