Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

A secure, cross-platform check-in app for a Primary User to voluntarily share status and location with trusted contacts. Stay connected with loved ones. CheckThere Overview CheckThere is a cross-platform, role-based check-in app with smart device recognition for Primary Users. To maintain accurate and unique check-in records, the system automatically recognizes the current active check-in device and switches to the latest device when the Primary User signs in on a new device or web browser. It enables voluntary status and location sharing from a Primary User to Observers. One checks in, many watch over—missed check-ins trigger alert emails. It is not intended for emergency or urgent situations. Observers are added or removed by the Primary User via email invitations. They can accept or decline, and may revoke access at any time. For security and delivery reliability, all emails are sent through a queued delivery system and may take approximately 1 minute to arrive. The system is centered around a Primary User who manages check-ins, alerts, and permissions. CheckThere is not a social network. Observers have no visibility of other Observers and cannot interact with each other. Access is strictly limited to the Primary User they are authorized for. Official Website: https://www.checkthere.me Who It’s For • Older adults who want simple family check-ins • Individuals living alone • People traveling alone • Families who want lightweight status updates • Caregivers supporting others remotely How It Works Primary Users control check-ins and manage observers. Observers are explicitly invited and can only view the Primary User’s status and location if access is granted. Observers cannot modify settings or send alerts. Account System CheckThere uses a role-based account system with different authentication flows for Primary Users and Observers. Primary User Primary Users sign in using CT-ID (CheckThere ID, a unique 10-digit system-generated identifier) or verified email, together with a password. Observer Observer access is granted only through an invitation from a Primary User and must be accepted before activation. Observers sign in using the associated Primary User email address together with their own email address and password. Observer Permissions Observers can view: • Check-in countdown status • Check-in location • Current check-in phase (normal / grace / overdue) • Alert status (if triggered) • Check-in cycle context (view-only) Observers cannot modify any settings or configurations. Observers can stop observing at any time and opt out of receiving alert email notifications. Alerts & Notifications If a check-in is missed beyond the grace period, alerts are sent to contacts selected by the Primary User. Observers only receive alerts if explicitly configured. No alerts are sent without user setup. A notification test helps users confirm alert setup after installation. Grace Period & Check-in Flow During the grace period, the system sends local notifications to the Primary User. Tapping a notification performs a one-tap check-in confirmation. Synchronization Check-in data is synchronized across devices. Data refreshes automatically when the app is opened. Privacy Minimal data collection Username, verified email and optional check-in location coordinates associated with your granted location permission.
