## What is Snuggy?

Snuggy is a free daily check-in app for people who live alone — and for the people who worry about them. Tap once a day to say you are okay. If you miss it, Snuggy tells the person you chose and asks them to look in on you.

WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DO NOT CHECK IN

Snuggy reminds you before your chosen time, and again if you forget. If you still have not checked in, your contact is told — and asked to look in on you.

With Premium, Snuggy rings your own phone first, in case you simply forgot. Only if you still do not check in is anybody else contacted. Most missed check-ins are a forgotten tap, and this is what keeps your family from being frightened over nothing.

WHAT IS FREE, AND WHAT IS NOT

Free, with no time limit: the daily check-in itself, reminders before your time, an email to your contact if you miss one, and test alerts so you can prove it works.

Premium adds the phone calls and text messages: a call to you first, then a text and a phone call to your contact. An email can sit unread all day. A ringing phone does not.

NOTES FOR WHOEVER COMES TO HELP

Your medication, where the spare key is, how to look after your pet — the things an ambulance crew or a neighbour would need to know and would otherwise have to guess.

YOUR OWN REMINDERS

Tablets in the morning, feeding the dog, an appointment on Thursday. And a short encouraging line waiting for you each day.

SETTING IT UP FOR YOUR MOTHER OR FATHER

Snuggy works that way too. Pair the two phones, add their reminders, see whether they have checked in today, and be told if they have not.

MADE FOR OLDER EYES AND HANDS

Large text, one question per screen, and nothing to wear, nothing to charge, no call centre.

QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK

Is Snuggy free? Yes. The daily check-in and an email to your contact cost nothing and never expire. Texts and phone calls are the paid part.

What if I forget to check in? Your contact is told and asked to look in on you. With Premium, Snuggy rings you first so a forgotten tap does not frighten anybody.

Who gets told? Only the person you choose. Nobody else, ever.

Do I have to wear anything? No. No pendant, no bracelet, no charging.

Does it call an ambulance? No. Snuggy tells a person you trust. There is also a red SOS button that opens 911 on your phone and alerts your contact at once.

What if I have nobody to add? Snuggy will still remind you, but there will be nobody to tell. It works best with at least one contact.

Premium: unlimited check-ins, unlimited reminders, notes for whoever comes to help,
and unlimited test alerts.

### 5/5 — Even I can use it!

*2026-09-06*

My grandson puts all kinds of things on my phone that I never use 😂 This one stayed. Snuggy is easy. I open it in the morning, tap once and I’m done. No complicated menus or trying to remember passwords every day. Thank you!!

### 5/5 — Good for living alone

*2026-09-05*

I’m 54 and work from home, so there are days when nobody would really know if something happened to me. Never gave that much thought until recently. I wanted something simple for living alone and this does the job without being creepy about it.

### 5/5 — My children like it too

*2026-09-04*

My children call me plenty but they have jobs and families of their own. I don’t expect them to keep checking on Mom all day! I do my daily check in in the morning and we all feel better about things. Very happy I found this.

### 5/5 — Honestly I got it because of my dogs

*2026-09-01*

I live alone with two dogs and my biggest worry is actually them. If something happened to me, how long would it be before somebody knew they were here? That thought bothered me enough to look for a safety app. This gives me a lot more peace of mind.

### 5/5 — Less nagging from my kids :)

*2026-08-30*

My kids mean well but apparently turning 70 means they think I need to report in every five minutes 😂 Now I let Snuggy know I’m fine in the morning and everybody can relax. I actually really like it.

### 5/5 — Helpful after losing my husband

*2026-08-29*

I’ve been living alone since my husband passed and my sister kept asking me to find something like this. I finally did. It only takes a few seconds in the morning and honestly I forget about it the rest of the day. That’s exactly how I want an app like this to work.

### 5/5 — One less thing to worry about

*2026-08-27*

My daughter lives in Texas and I’m in Michigan. She can’t exactly stop by to see if Dad is doing alright. I started using the check in every morning and she likes knowing there is a backup if she hasn’t heard from me. Works for us.

## Frequently asked questions about Snuggy

### Is Snuggy free to use?

The core daily check-in feature and email alerts to your contact are free and do not expire. Premium features, such as phone calls and text messages for alerts, require a subscription.

### What happens if I forget to check in with Snuggy?

Snuggy will remind you before your scheduled time and again if you forget. If you still do not check in, your chosen contact will be notified and asked to check on you. The Premium version offers an added layer by calling your phone first.

### Who is notified if I miss a check-in?

Only the specific person you designate as your contact will be notified if you miss a check-in. Your privacy is maintained, as no one else is informed.

### Does Snuggy require any special devices?

No, Snuggy does not require you to wear any devices like pendants or bracelets, nor does it need to be charged separately. It functions solely through your smartphone.

### Does Snuggy call emergency services directly?

Snuggy does not directly call emergency services like an ambulance. Instead, it alerts a trusted person you have chosen. However, it does feature a red SOS button that will open 911 on your phone and simultaneously alert your contact.

### Can I use Snuggy if I don't have anyone to add as a contact?

While Snuggy will still provide reminders for you, it is most effective when you have at least one contact to notify in case of a missed check-in. Without a contact, the alert function cannot be utilized.
