A daily check-in app asks your parent one question at a time they choose, like "Are you okay?" at 10 AM, and tells you only if nobody answers. Avísame does this with Plus: your parent taps I'm okay, or reaching a place they saved answers for them, and if nobody hears from them Avísame asks them first, then tells the people they chose. You can also see their phone's battery and when they last opened the app.
Questions
Is there an app to check on an elderly parent every day?
Yes. Avísame sends your parent a daily check-in at a time they choose and tells you only if nobody answers. Check-ins come with Avísame Plus, on iPhone and Android.
What happens if my parent misses the check-in?
Avísame asks them first. If there is still no answer, it tells the family members they chose, in the order they chose. It never decides on its own that something happened.
Does my parent have to share their location?
No. Check-ins work with location off. Sharing location is a choice, and it can be turned off with one switch.
