Companion app to Staying Sharp

Features & Capabilities

The AARP Staying Sharp Chrome extension is a companion app designed to promote brain health for adults 50 and older, based on holistic lifestyle principles. Developed alongside AARP’s Global Council on Brain Health, the app offers expert-backed challenges such as "Memory Loss – Is it Inevitable?" and "Faces & Names" to improve memory, focus, and digital organization.

Users can take engaging, step-by-step challenges that teach brain-healthy habits aligned with the six pillars of brain health: social connection, balanced nutrition, stress management, ongoing exercise, restorative sleep, and mental engagement. Progress syncs seamlessly across devices—smartphone, tablet, or computer—and participants can earn AARP Rewards points for completing activities. The app also integrates with the AARP Now app for news, events, and savings, making it a comprehensive tool to stay sharp and live life fully.
