An App That Texts When You Get Home Safe (And Alerts If You Don't)
Stop relying on yourself to remember to text when you get home. CheckIn More does it automatically — and alerts your contacts if you don't make it back.
You've said it a hundred times: "I'll text you when I get home."
And then you get home, kick off your shoes, and completely forget. Your friend is left wondering. Your mom checks her phone twice. You wake up to three missed calls.
CheckIn More fixes this — not by reminding you to text, but by handling it automatically.
How It Works
Set a Safety Timer before you leave — a duration, a time you expect to be back, or just a quick text to the app. When you check in, your contacts get a notification that you made it home safe. If you don't check in, they're alerted automatically.
You don't have to remember anything. The app is the reminder.
Two Things It Does That You Can't
It texts them when you're safe. The moment you check in, your contacts are notified. No extra step, no "oh right, I forgot to text." It just happens.
It alerts them if you're not. This is the part a text message can't do. If you set a timer and don't check back in, CheckIn More notifies your contacts for you — even if you can't.
That second part is what makes it more than a convenience feature.
Start It With a Text
You don't even need to open the app. Just text CheckIn More before you leave:
- "heading home, 20 minutes"
- "leaving work now, back by 6"
- "on my way"
When you're home, text "I'm home" or "made it" to check in. Your contacts get notified, the timer closes, everyone moves on with their evening.
What Your Contacts Receive
Notifications go out by email, SMS, or phone call depending on your setup — both for successful check-ins and missed ones. Your contacts don't need to download anything. They just get a message.
Who It's For
This works for anyone who has someone waiting to hear from them:
- Late night drives home
- Walking home alone after work or a night out
- First dates or meeting someone new
- Traveling solo
- Any situation where someone's going to worry until they hear from you

Frequently Asked Questions
Do my contacts get notified when I check in successfully? Yes. When you complete a check-in, your contacts can receive a notification that you're home safe — not just when something goes wrong.
What if I forget to check in? That's the point. If you don't check in before the timer expires, CheckIn More waits five minutes and then notifies your contacts automatically.
Do my contacts need the app? No. They receive alerts by email, SMS, or phone call. No account or download required.
Can I start a timer without opening the app? Yes. Just text CheckIn More with your ETA or duration and it handles the rest.
