Apple Watch monitors you. RscMe alerts your family.
Apple Watch's built-in alerts notify only you. RscMe sends a real SMS — to up to 5 emergency contacts you choose — with your name, current heart rate, and a GPS link. No Medical ID. No 911 call. Just a text to the right people, at the right moment.

Key Features
• Continuous Heart Rate Monitoring
Open RscMe on your Apple Watch and tap Start. From that moment, Apple Watch monitors your heart rate continuously — even while your screen is off. When something looks wrong, RscMe triggers automatically.
• Emergency SMS to Your Family
Real text messages with your name, heart rate, and GPS location — sent to any phone, no app needed. Up to 5 emergency contacts. Each alert uses 1 credit per contact.
• Fully Automatic — No Buttons
Works even if you can't react. No apps to open, no buttons to press. Wear your Apple Watch as you normally would.
• Private by Design
Your health data is never stored. Everything stays on your device and is used only for alerts.

Who is RscMe for?
• For Your Parents — Set it up in 10 minutes. They wear Apple Watch as usual — no new habits. If their heart rate becomes dangerous, you get a text with their location. Even if they can't call for help.
• For Heart Conditions — Set your personal thresholds. RscMe monitors continuously and alerts the people who matter, with a 30-minute cooldown to prevent repeat messages during the same episode.
• For People Often Alone — Working out, hiking, or living solo. RscMe keeps your contacts informed even when you can't reach your phone.

I have blood pressure issues, I have a heart artery that is moderately fatty so my blood pressure is really hard to keep up even with medication sometimes in the morning or even in the afternoon when I take a nap, my heartbeat drops below what I set the application for and my daughter is my first emergency contact and she right away texts me asking me if I’m alright and the purpose is, if I don't respond to her, she’ll call the cops to get into my apartment. I got this app because I always have thought that my heart is my weakest point and I wouldn’t like someone to find me dead days or even weeks later when my body is already decomposing.

Watch monitoring
mcpo2000
I like what it does but why doesn’t the app just run in the background. When I look at my watch now it doesn’t show the clock but shows the monitoring of heart rate. Can that be changed?
Developer Response
Thank you for your feedback! RscMe continues monitoring in the background, so you don’t need to keep its screen visible. After starting monitoring, press the Digital Crown once to return to your normal watch face.To make this automatic, open Settings on your Apple Watch and go to General → Return to Clock → RscMe. Choose Custom → Always and turn off Return to App under When in Session. This only changes what your watch displays and RscMe monitoring will continue.We appreciate your feedback and will make this clearer in the app.Jan from RscMe
Amazing App and great dev

This app does what it’s supposed too. It gets the job done when the time calls for it. Hopefully the dev keeps improving and keeps it up to date. Thank you for this amazing piece of technology.

A bit bare bones…
B.G. 98'
Downloaded this in hopes of having some way of alerting my loved ones if my heart gradually stops beating when I’m alone. The idea is great, and the monitoring appears to work—but I’m uncertain as to the efficacy. I purchased credits to allow message alert sending, but there’s no way to know what that will look like on my loved one’s end because you can’t prompt a test notification—and you can’t set the detection level sensitive enough to get one to trigger (say, setting it to below 80BPM temporarily just to flag one.)Hoping the app can and will do what it promises, a bit disappointed in the lack of phone-side app features though.
