Frequently Asked Questions
We have opposite schedules. Does this help?
Perfect for that! Each person checks in at their time. You're notified only if something's off—no need to be awake at the same time.
Can we both be contacts for each other?
Yes! Each person downloads the app and sets the other as their emergency contact. Mutual check-ins.
My roommate parties late. Will this cause false alarms?
Set check-in time for when they're normally back. The grace period handles occasional late nights. Adjust timing if patterns change.
We're just roommates, not family. Is this weird?
Not at all. Many roommates look out for each other this way. It's basic safety for people sharing a living space.
