Frequently Asked Questions
How do I start a check-in routine with a family member?
Start by having a conversation about why regular check-ins matter. Agree on a time and method that works for both of you. Use this plan as a starting point and adjust as needed. The key is consistency.
What if I live in a different timezone?
Choose a check-in time that works in your loved one's timezone, and note the time difference. Many families find morning check-ins work best since it confirms the person woke up safely. ImAlive handles timezone differences automatically.
Can ImAlive automate this check-in plan?
Yes! ImAlive automates the entire process. Your loved one simply taps one button each day to confirm they are okay. If they miss the check-in, you are automatically notified through the app. No phone calls, no scheduling, no missed days.
What if my family member resists check-ins?
Frame it as mutual care, not surveillance. Many people feel more independent knowing someone will be alerted only if something is wrong, rather than getting daily phone calls. ImAlive is designed to feel empowering, not intrusive.
