About
Living alone doesn't mean being alone.
Ping is the simplest, warmest daily check-in app for people who live alone. One gentle tap a day lets your circle know you're okay. No chat. No pressure. Just a quiet "I'm here."
— How Ping works —
Every morning, open the app and pick how you're feeling. One tap on an emoji and your friends instantly know you're okay. Add a photo if you want — your coffee, the morning light, your cat. Skip the photo, write a one-line note, or just go.
Most days it takes 3 seconds.
— What makes Ping different —
SEE YOUR PEOPLE
Open the app and instantly see everyone's status. Mom Pinged at 8:30. Your best friend is feeling tired today. You're connected without sending a single message.
NUDGE
See a friend's check-in? Tap to "nudge" them. They feel a gentle vibration and know you saw them. Lighter than a text. Warmer than silence.
WARMTH STREAKS
The more days you and a friend Ping together, the warmer your connection grows. No pressure, no punishment if you miss — just a gentle glow of consistency.
A QUIET SAFETY NET
If you don't Ping by your set time, Ping reminds you. Still nothing? It can let the people you trust know you've been quiet today. This is not a medical alert — for emergencies, use Apple Emergency SOS or call your local emergency number. Ping is the early, gentle layer: "Hey, just checking on you."
— Ping is for —
• Anyone who lives alone, by choice or circumstance
• Adult children of elderly or aging parents
• Long-distance friendships and family
• Solo travelers, road-trippers, hikers
• People with chronic conditions or recovery
• Roommates, partners apart, anyone who wants a lighter way to stay close
— Why Ping isn't like other check-in apps —
Most "safety check-in" apps treat you like a sensor to be monitored. They feel cold. Ping was designed by independent makers who live alone — we wanted something that feels like a friend tapping the door, not a security system. Every detail of Ping is warm: the colors, the language, the way notifications are written.
— Designed for privacy —
Your check-ins, moods, photos, and notes stay between you and the people you've invited. No accounts to create. No ads. No personal data sold. Everything syncs through your iCloud — Apple's secure cloud — never our servers.
— Ping Pro —

— A small thing, daily —
Stop texting "are you okay?" Start Pinging.
