Frequently Asked Questions

I live alone in a London flat. Why do I need this?

In a city of 9 million, it's easy for no one to notice if something goes wrong. A daily check-in ensures someone is alerted within hours, not days.

My elderly parent lives alone in London.

They check in once daily with one tap. If they miss it, you get escalating alerts. Works perfectly for seniors who want independence.

I'm a student at UCL living alone for the first time.

Set a parent as your contact. One daily tap gives them peace of mind without daily phone calls.

Is this free?

Completely free — no subscription, no premium features locked. Daily check-ins and alerts are free forever.

Does daylight saving affect notifications?

The app automatically adjusts for BST/GMT changes. No settings to update when clocks change.
