Support-O is out now on iPhone and Android
$1.99 a month on the App Store and Google Play. No ads. Cancel any time.
The daily check-in app for seniors, baby boomers and anyone who lives alone
One button a day, so nobody has to wonder.
You use Support-O — but really, you use it for them. The worry was never that something will happen. It is how long it might be before anybody knows. Answer once each morning, at a time you choose, and the people who lie awake thinking about you can stop.
The whole app is one button a day
Good morning
At the time you choose, your phone says good morning by name, with two gentle reminders if you are busy.
Tap THANK YOU
One large button, in the same place every day. That is the entire job. Nothing else is required of you.
Silence is noticed
If it goes unanswered for the time you set, the people you chose get a short text so they can check on you.

Why one button is the whole of it
There is a good deal in here for you. Your medicines with your own photographs of each pill. Your exercise and physical therapy list in your doctor's words. Use as much or as little of it as you like — none of it is required.
But none of that is the reason it exists. Somebody who loves you has already thought about this. They have wondered how long it would be before anyone noticed, and they have decided not to say so, because saying it out loud sounds like fussing. That is what one button answers — not a question about your health, a question about their peace of mind.
So that is all we ask of you. One button, once a day, at a time you pick. You do it for them.
Built for the person using it
Large, plain and calm
Big type, big buttons, no menus to learn, no accounts or passwords, no advertising. The same screen every morning.
Your medications, your photographs
Keep each medicine with your own pictures of the front and back of the pill, the times, the days and whether food matters.
Your exercise and physical therapy list
Whatever your doctor or physical therapist asked for, in their own words, with pictures of the sheet they gave you.
Your medicines stay on your phone
Your medication list, the pill photographs and your exercise list never leave the handset. Our server keeps only what it needs to text your family if a morning goes unanswered: your first name, your time zone, your morning time, how long to wait, your language, your contacts' names and numbers, and a record of each morning's check-in and of the texts we sent, until you delete everything. Nothing about your health is sent anywhere. See the privacy notice.
