Why SMS for Safety Alerts
Why text messages are still one of the most reliable ways to reach family in a check-in app.
When a check-in is missed, someone needs to know—quickly and reliably. SMS remains one of the most dependable ways to reach people, regardless of smartphone habits or app notifications.
SMS reaches almost everyone
Not everyone checks app notifications promptly. SMS cuts through—most people see texts within minutes, even on basic phones or when data is limited.
Simple for family members
Family contacts don't need to install another app to receive an alert. A text is universal, familiar, and hard to miss.
