## What is Porchlight?

Is Mom okay this morning?

If someone you love lives alone, that question follows you everywhere: into meetings, across time zones, into the night. Porchlight answers it every day, in ten seconds. One tap from her says "I'm OK." Silence sends the family a text. Everyone sleeps better.

"WHY DON'T I JUST CALL THEM?"
Of course you should call, to talk. But daily are-you-okay calls wear everyone down: the time zones, the missed days, the guilt when you forget, the worry when she doesn't pick up. Porchlight is the safety net underneath your calls. She gives ten seconds a day, you get certainty, and on the one morning silence means something, you know within the hour instead of days later. Call because you want to hear her voice, not to check if she's all right.

HOW IT WORKS
Your loved one checks in once a day, their way:
• Tap the one big button in this app
• Answer a friendly phone call and press 1. Works on flip phones and landlines, no app needed
• Reply OK to a daily text

If they check in, everyone relaxes. If they don't, Porchlight gently tries again, then texts the family: "Mom hasn't checked in today. Please give her a call."

WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE PORCHLIGHT
• Nothing for your loved one to learn, wear, or charge
• Family needs no app. Alerts arrive as regular text messages
• A gentle reminder finds them at check-in time, even with the app closed
• Set up in five minutes at porchlight.uhurued.com. The senior types a 6-digit code once, ever

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No ads. No tracking. No data sold. Ever.

FREE FOREVER
One daily check-in and one family alert contact, free for life. No credit card to start.

FAMILY PLAN: $49/YEAR (purchased on our website)
• Automated phone-call check-ins for flip phones and landlines
• Morning and evening schedules
• Up to 5 family contacts, alerted in order
• Vacation pause

Porchlight is a family notification service, not an emergency or medical alert service. It never calls 911 and should never be the only way anyone checks on a loved one.
