ProofPing
Safety for Solo Living
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Someone's always got your back.
Living alone is wonderful—until that quiet thought creeps in: "What if something happened and no one knew?"
ProofPing is a simple daily check-in that gives you and your loved ones peace of mind. Each day, you'll get a friendly reminder. Tap once to let everyone know you're okay. If you don't respond, the people who care about you are automatically notified with your location and emergency information.
No more daily "are you alive?" texts from Mom. No more worrying about Dad living alone at 75. Just a quick tap, and everyone breathes easier.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Set your daily check-in time
2. Get a gentle reminder notification
3. Tap once to confirm you're okay
4. If you miss it, your circle is alerted
It's that simple. We'll send escalating reminders before alerting anyone—because we know life gets busy. But if you truly don't respond, your emergency contacts receive an SMS and email with your last known location and any emergency info you've chosen to share.
FEATURES
• Daily Check-In — A single tap confirms you're safe. Build a streak and make safety a habit.
• Circle of Trust — Add up to 5 emergency contacts who'll be notified if you don't check in. They don't need the app to receive alerts.
• Emergency Vault — Store medical conditions, medications, allergies, doctor info, and home entry instructions. Only revealed when an alert is triggered.
• Travel Mode — Exploring somewhere new? Increase your check-in frequency to every 6, 8, or 12 hours while you're away.
• Circle Dashboard — Let loved ones see your check-in status anytime, so they can check on you without calling.
• Smart Grace Periods — We detect if you're using your phone and send a gentle nudge before alerting anyone. Fewer false alarms, more peace of mind.
• SMS & Email Alerts — Your contacts are reached instantly through multiple channels when it matters most.
PERFECT FOR
• People who live alone
• Solo travelers and backpackers
• Remote workers with no office check-in
• Adult children of aging parents
• Anyone who wants a simple safety net
WHY PROOFPING?
Unlike other "dead man's switch" apps with morbid branding and confusing interfaces, ProofPing is designed to feel warm and encouraging. Safety shouldn't feel scary. It should feel like someone's got your back.
We built ProofPing because 37 million Americans live alone—the highest number in history. That's not a problem to solve. It's a lifestyle to support. Independence is beautiful. Having a safety net makes it even better.
