Worried about her?
Mum on her own since Dad died. A gran getting frailer. A friend recovering at home. When someone you love is old, sick or living alone, unanswered calls feel heavy. A daily check-in settles it, every morning.
Made for the person you keep thinking about
Getting older, living independently
Independence is the whole point. The check-in protects it, with backup that only steps in when something is off.
Sick or recovering at home
Surgery, treatment, a rough patch. A morning signal while they get back on their feet, for a fortnight or a year.
Simply on their own
No cameras, nothing to wear, nothing to learn. One tap with the morning cuppa says all is well.
A daily check that she is OK
One small signal each morning. If it does not come, you know first.
Pick her check-in
A button she taps with her morning cuppa, or a sensor that simply notices the day starting. No camera, nothing to wear.
We set it all up
Configured before it reaches her. Her part is one tap or nothing at all.
You get the alert
No check-in by your chosen time and your phone tells you, so you can call her or go around.
Falls are the bigger worry? Our sister site Check On Mum does radar fall detection with no wearable. Would a pendant actually get worn? Keep You Safe will help you pick one that will be.
Worried about him instead? Everything here works the same for a dad, a brother or a mate: same check-in, same set-up.

Questions families ask us
What is a daily check-in, exactly?
A small routine that proves the morning started as usual: a button tap, a sensor that notices movement, or a call that gets answered. If nothing happens by the time you choose, you get a message so you can call or go around. There are no cameras and nothing to wear or learn.
Is this a camera in her house?
No. We do not install cameras. The check-in works from a simple button or a movement sensor, so privacy stays intact and you still get your answer. If falls are the main worry, our sister site Check On Mum covers radar fall detection with no wearable.
Is this only for older people?
No. The same check-in suits anyone at home on their own: recovering after surgery, managing an illness, or just going through a rough patch. It runs for a fortnight or for years, whatever the situation needs.
She is not good with technology. Will this still work?
Yes, that is who it is designed for. Everything is set up before it reaches her, and her part is one tap or nothing at all. The alerts and settings live with you.
Tell us who you are worried about
A sentence or two is enough. We reply personally, usually the same day.
