One tap.
A little peace of mind.
Let your people know you’re okay.
A private daily check-in, with a few words
when you have more to say.
Free for you and up to four people.
iPhone · iOS 26 or later · iCloud required
No location tracking. No alarms about a quiet day.
One small habit
A quick hello on an ordinary day.
Your people, privately
Only the people you choose see it.
A little more, if you like
Add a note, a photo, or your voice.
A look inside
Simple on both sides.
You send a check-in. They see what you shared.
A tap is enough.
Say “I’m okay”, ask for a call, or let your people know you could use a hand. A note, photo, or voice note is optional.

Make it yours
A routine that fits your relationship.
A check-in that respects independence
Agree on a small daily update with a parent who wants to share it. Let the person checking in choose the routine and the recipients.

Use a quick check-in for the ordinary days when your schedules do not line up. Keep longer conversations for when you can both talk.

Set the reminder around the sender’s day. Read each received check-in in the sender’s local time rather than assuming your own date applies.

DailyCheck does not detect missed check-ins, monitor health, or raise alarms. It shares what you choose to say. Keep your usual way to call or message each other.
Understand the limitsBefore you start
A few simple answers.
Is it really free?
Yes. Check-ins, notes, photos, voice notes, 90 days of family history, and sharing with up to four people are free. No subscription.
Do we both need the app?
Yes. Both people need DailyCheck on an iPhone running iOS 26 or later and their own iCloud accounts.
Does it track my location?
No. DailyCheck shares the check-in and optional content you choose. It does not track your location or score your wellbeing.
Will my family get an alarm if I miss a day?
No. DailyCheck does not detect missing check-ins or raise alarms. A day without a check-in does not explain what happened.
Can I stop sharing?
Yes. You can revoke someone’s private access in the app. Information they already read or saved cannot be taken back.
