SoloHalo — Personal Safety Check-In App for People Who Live Alone
SoloHalo is a privacy-first daily safety check-in app for people who live alone, solo travellers, and anyone who wants a quiet layer of protection. It works offline and runs quietly in the background.
It sends you a scheduled reminder to check in. If you don't respond within your chosen window, your trusted contacts are alerted by push notification, SMS, and phone call. If your phone is active but you haven't checked in, contacts can also receive a calm early heads-up email — not an emergency, just a gentle signal.
What SoloHalo does
SoloHalo is a personal safety monitoring app. It does not track your location. It monitors whether you have checked in on schedule. If you miss a check-in, it alerts the people you trust using multiple communication channels so that help can reach you even in low-connectivity situations.
Key Features
- Privacy-first — No continuous location tracking or storage. Your data is not sold or shared.
- Daily check-ins — Set a schedule. If you don't check in, your trusted contacts are alerted.
- Trusted contacts — Choose who gets notified and how (push, SMS, or phone call). Each contact controls their own notification preferences.
- Gentle heads-up notifications — If your phone is active but you haven't checked in, contacts who've opted in receive a calm early email — sent once per check-in cycle, not an emergency alert.
- Three-layer emergency SOS — Push notification, SMS, and phone call escalation.
- Travel mode — Extend check-in windows when you're off-grid or travelling remotely.
- Offline-first — Check-ins are stored locally and sync when you're back online.
- Server-side dead man's switch — Even if your phone goes completely dark, the server steps in after an extended silence.
- Timed pause — Pause monitoring for 1 hour, 4 hours, or indefinitely. It resumes automatically.

Is SoloHalo an emergency service?
No. SoloHalo is a personal safety monitoring tool, not an emergency response service. It cannot call 000, 999, or 911 on your behalf. In any life-threatening situation, always call your local emergency number directly. SoloHalo helps ensure the people who care about you are informed and can act — it does not replace emergency services.
