Frequently Asked Questions

The village I'm posted to has very weak signal. Will it work?

The check-in requires minimal data—less than a text message. If you can send a WhatsApp message, you can check in. Try from the spot with the best signal.

I'm a woman teacher posted alone to a rural area. Is this helpful?

Very much so. Your family gets daily confirmation of your safety. If you miss a check-in, they can immediately contact local authorities or your school administration.

What if there's a power outage and my phone dies?

If your phone dies and you can't check in, your family is alerted—which is exactly the right outcome. Keep a power bank charged as backup.

Can my school principal be my emergency contact?

Yes, if they're nearby and can respond. However, a family member who can escalate to authorities is often a better choice for after-hours emergencies.
