Frequently Asked Questions
I work on Wall Street with insane hours. How does this fit?
It's designed for busy people. Zero daily effort from you. Your parents check in at their time, you're notified only if they miss. Check your phone when you can.
I'm in Jackson Heights/Jersey City. Lots of Indians here.
Yes! The NYC Indian community is huge but far from parents. Daily check-ins are how modern NRI families stay connected.
10.5 hours is a big gap. What if they need help at 3 AM my time?
If parents miss a check-in, you're alerted. You can set up local emergency contacts in India who can physically check faster while you coordinate remotely.
I already have a Ring camera at my parents' home.
Cameras show your home, not your parents' health. A check-in confirms they're alert and active—something a camera can't verify.
