"The best Christmas present I've ever received"

Three years ago, Hans Jørgen (89) received Komp as a Christmas present from his family.
My family is scattered all over the country, living in places like Grimstad, Arendal, Skien, Oslo, Bardufoss, and Evenes in Troms and Finnmark. But with the pictures, I can see the kids growing up. Before, the days were long. Now, with Komp, it's completely different. It's absolutely fantastic. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. It has become very important to me. Turning it on is the first thing I do when I get up in the morning.

"I get more contact with my grandchildren"

Kari has been a farmer all her life, but now her granddaughter runs the farm. With three children, eight grandchildren and three great-grandchildren, there's a lot to keep up with. This summer, great-grandchild number four will arrive.
I get more contact with my children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren after I got this. It means so much to me.

"We're all connected"

Winnie didn't have a cell phone and found modern technology difficult. Since the family bought Komp, life has changed completely. Winnie is more in touch with her family and Komp has become a hub for the whole family.
"It's been a great help and it changed my life because I knew I had contact with them."

With Komp, the world becomes bigger and the distances smaller.

"Dad has become the centre point of the family"

When Kristin is traveling, she makes sure to send pictures home to her father. They appear on Komp as the days go by, and when she comes home, they have a lot to talk about.
The fact that he has seen the pictures means that he knows what I am talking about when I tell him about the place I have visited. Sometimes I also call – directly to Komp – and he really appreciates that. For example, if I'm standing far out in the bush somewhere, or on a mountaintop. Or from the middle of Rome. Then he can say to the rest of the family: "Today I was in Milan."

Harry says goodnight to his wife every night via Komp

For Harry, Komp is an important channel for communication with his family. Harry says that communicating via a screen gives him a stronger sense of togetherness than when he talks on the phone.
It feels good to see the faces of loved ones. I have many conversations with my children and my wife. It's important to say goodnight.

With Komp, Katie feels like she has her family with her all the time

When Katie's children heard about Komp they decided to give it a try. They haven't regretted it.
I like everything about it because you feel you’re at home with your folk. It’s good for anybody and the likes of me being in a home. You can keep in touch with your folk with no bother.

"It makes me feel like I'm living with the rest of the family"

On the screen, a mix of new photos and photos the family has found in old albums and added to Kompen scrolls. Among them is the engagement photo of Solbjørg and her husband Petter, and photos from when their three sons were young. Then Solbjørg lights up, she starts to reminisce and tell stories.
Komp is wonderful. It makes me feel like I'm living with the rest of the family and that I don't feel left out.

What do our users say?

Fantastic and easy to use

loading="lazy"
"If I could give more stars, I would. Komp was exactly what we needed to stay in touch with mom and keep her updated on us through video calls, messages, reminders and photos of daily events, grandchildren and great-grandchildren."

Komp brings immense joy

loading="lazy"
"The best gift we ever gave my parents. Bought it just before the pandemic. Suddenly they got to take part in all days, celebrations and weekdays even though my family lives scattered. Now my mother is alone and many times a day she looks at the pictures and through Komp she got to see her newborn twin great-grandchildren in real. With Komp she has the whole family right in her living room."

Komp is a great invention

loading="lazy"
"Komp is a great invention, and a very good way to keep in touch with someone you can't be present with. Lost contact with the machine and contacted help on the internet. There we solved the problem immediately, so now I'm up and running again. Good skin and good service."
