Set a check-back
Before you head out, choose when you should be home and who should hear if you aren't. Add a little context if you want: where you're going, who you're with, when to expect you.
How it works
Simple by design.
Check Back Tonight is quick to set up and quiet while you're out. Tell it when you should be back, and let it keep watch until you are.
The three steps
An ordinary evening, in three taps.
Head out
Go live your evening. There's no constant tracking and no stream of pings. A quiet timer keeps watch in the background, and that's all.
Check back in
When you're home safe, one tap ends the check-back and no one is contacted. That's the whole job on an ordinary night.
The quiet details
What happens around the edges.
If you miss a check-back
If the time passes and you haven't checked in, we let the people you chose know, with the details you set. The goal is a calm, clear heads-up to the right people, never a false alarm.
Reminders you can trust
You can turn on optional SMS reminders as your check-back time approaches, so it's easy to check in and easy to stop. Texts are only ever check-in reminders, missed check-in alerts, and service notifications. Reply STOP anytime.
Change your mind anytime
Extend the time, update who is on your list, or cancel a check-back entirely. You're always in control, and nothing is shared for advertising.
