Safety check-in app for the United States

A simple wellness check for people living alone. One tap tells your circle you are OK — SMS if you miss, no app for them.

Wellness check without the tracking app

TapOkie is a daily safety check-in for people living alone in the US. Family gets a text if you miss — not another tracking app to install. Free for the core habit.

Built for US households

SMS, not another app for them

Contacts verify once and get plain SMS - no account for them to manage.

Safety Trail when you are with someone

Log places (and photos on Premium). If you miss a check-in, contacts can open your private trail in the browser.

Privacy over live maps

One daily OK signal - not always-on GPS for friends to watch.

Across time zones

A missed check-in is a clear cue to call, even across states.

How a US check-in works

1

Set up your circle

Download free, add a trusted contact, and have them confirm by SMS.

Open TapOkie in your window and tap I'm OK. Reminders help you stay consistent.

3

They hear if you miss

Miss it and contacts get SMS - a quiet signal to check on you.

Common questions

Is TapOkie a medical alert system?

No. TapOkie is not a monitored medical alarm. It is a daily check-in with SMS to people you choose.

Do contacts need the app?

No. They receive SMS on any phone after a one-time verification.

How is this different from Life360?

TapOkie is not built around live location sharing. It is one daily OK signal, with SMS only if you miss. Optional Safety Trail lets you log places when you are with someone - shared only if you miss a check-in.
