Just Checking In
For close friend groups

When one of you goes quiet, somebody notices.

A small private circle where everyone shares how the day went in one tap. No group chat to keep up with, no organizer required.

It's Time to Check In

How are you feeling today?

Sam checked in

Feeling Okay, but a little tired.

Alex has gone quiet

No check-in for 2 days.

Your circle sent ❤️

The group is thinking of you.

Everyone gives and receives

Reciprocal check-ins keep it from feeling like anyone is being watched.

No news is good news

The feed only needs attention when something changes or someone is missing.

Follow up in the app

Chat is built in, so a rough check-in does not need yet another group text.

“My closest friends and I use this to stay updated with each other's mood without having to speak every day. Many times I've been sad and I check in, and my friends have called me right after.”

“Being able to check in and let others know I am ok without spending a long time on the phone is easy with this app.”

How to set it up

  1. 1

    Keep it to three to five people

    Small enough that a missed day is obvious, big enough to survive one busy week.

  2. 2

    Pick one shared time

    Everyone checking in around the same time syncs the group up.

  3. 3

    Say out loud what a miss earns

    A text, a call, or a knock. Agree before you need it.

Private by default

  • Invite-only circles. Nothing is public and nothing is searchable.
  • No location sharing and no activity monitoring.
  • Free to start, on iPhone and Android.

Start the habit with your people this week.

One tap a day is all it takes for the group to stay accounted for.

Just Checking In is not therapy, medical care, an emergency service, or a crisis line. In a crisis, contact local emergency services.
