My Things is an app developed by CanAssist at the University of Victoria as a way to easily explore personally meaningful music and photos. It is designed to help people living with dementia [in a care facility] by entertaining them, sparking memories, encouraging socialization, and reducing resistance to care. A help videos feature allows friends and family to record short videos to encourage their loved one to, for example, take medicine or treat others with respect. But the core of the app is simply allowing music to work its magic. Playing that music is just one screen-tap away, and the results have been very encouraging.

*** WHO IS IT FOR? ***
My Things is especially beneficial to people who are living with dementia, and their caregivers. It may also be useful for anyone who wants a simplified interface to music and photos, including those with:
- Brain injury
- Autism Spectrum Disorder
- Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder
- Developmental disabilities
- Dyslexia, literacy challenges, etc.

*** KEY FEATURES ***
- Select music and photos on the device for presentation
- Touch an album to start/stop playback
- Timed photo “slideshow” with optional simultaneous music playback
- Record personalized help videos intended to address resistance to care
- Supports multiple users, each with his or her own media


*** PERMISSIONS ***
- Photos/Media/Files is required for browsing media on the device.
- Camera and Microphone are required for taking photos for use as user avatars, and recording help videos.

*** CANASSIST at the UNIVERSITY OF VICTORIA ***
