Frequently Asked Questions
I work on a farm with no cell service during the day. Can I still use this?
Set your check-in for evening when you're back at housing with WiFi. The app only needs internet for the brief check-in moment.
Does this work for H-2A or H-2B visa workers?
Yes. It works for anyone with a smartphone and internet access, regardless of visa type or work authorization status.
I send money home but my family still worries. Will this help?
Absolutely. Money transfers confirm you're working, but a daily check-in confirms you're safe. Both matter to families.
What if several workers want to use it in shared housing?
Each worker creates their own account with their own email. Multiple workers can use the app independently on their own phones.
I only do seasonal work for four months a year. Can I stop and start the app?
Yes. Use it during your work season and ignore it when you are home with family. There is no subscription to cancel and no penalty for not using it. Just open the app again next season.
Can I use it only during my work season and stop when I'm home?
Yes. Use it during the months you are away for seasonal work, then simply stop when you return home to family. There is no subscription to cancel on the free plan and no penalty for pausing, so you can pick it up again next season. Many seasonal workers use it exactly this way, treating it as a safety net for the stretches when they are far from home and starting it fresh each year.
What if several workers share accommodation and one device or network?
Each worker should create their own account with their own email address so their check-in is tied to them personally, even if you share a wifi network in worker housing. Shared internet is fine because the check-in needs only a brief connection. If you genuinely share a single phone, it is best for each person to have their own device, but at minimum keep separate accounts so alerts reach the right family.
