information remotely, e.g., adding activities or customising the image archive. A support person
can, at any time, log in on myAbilia web service from his/her smartphone, tablet, or computer, and
make the desired changes.

another. When you use Bluetooth speakers, you may need to turn off the sound on the device to
avoid an echo during playback.
