The Problem
Sound familiar? You're not alone.
Family members live alone in different cities
Hard to keep track of everyone's wellbeing
Don't want to be intrusive with constant calls
No single person in the family has a clear picture of how everyone is doing on any given day
After a family loss or health scare, the anxiety about other relatives spikes but eventually daily follow-up fades
How I'm Alive Solves This
A simple solution that actually works.
Each family member checks in at their own time
You're notified only when someone might need help
Non-intrusive way to stay connected
One person can serve as the family hub, receiving check-ins from multiple relatives and knowing at a glance who is okay
Sustained daily check-ins keep the safety net active long after the initial concern fades, so protection does not depend on memory or motivation

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I monitor multiple family members?
Yes! You can be the emergency contact for multiple people. Each person has their own account and check-in schedule.
What about family members in different timezones?
Each person sets their own check-in time. The app handles timezone differences automatically.
Is there a family plan?
The app is free for everyone. Each family member downloads it and sets you as their contact. No special plan needed.
Can we have a family group?
Currently it's one-to-one (person to contact). Family group features are being planned for future updates.
Some family members are private and might resist this idea. How do I bring it up?
Position it as something the whole family is doing together rather than singling anyone out. When everyone participates, it feels like a shared family habit instead of surveillance. You can also let each person choose their own check-in time so it fits naturally into their day without feeling forced.
