Haloway is for the family member who carries the worry: the daughter who calls every morning, the son who manages the pillbox, the neighbor who keeps an eye out. It turns that load into a shared routine. DAILY CHECK-INS — Log the morning call in one tap, keep a streak, and if no one has checked in by your deadline, the escalation ladder starts: call, ask a nearby contact to look in, then everything a responder needs on one screen. CARE RECIPIENT MODE — Hand them the phone: giant I'm OK and I-need-help buttons, today's medicine checklist, and one-tap calls to family. Built for older eyes and hands. MEDICATIONS — Reminders for every dose, a weekly adherence view, and refill alerts before the bottle runs out. APPOINTMENTS & RIDES — Track visits and assign who's driving, so nobody double-books and nothing gets missed. STAYING SAFE AT HOME — A room-by-room fall-prevention checklist and a family scam log with scripts for the calls that target older adults. PRIVACY BY DESIGN — Sharing is the care recipient's choice, decided together: location, check-ins, medications, and emergency info are each opt-in, enforced in the sync engine itself. Your data lives on your devices and your own iCloud — we run no servers and can't see it. Free for one caregiver and one care recipient. The Family Plan ($6.99/month or $59.99/year) adds unlimited caregivers, no-check-in alerts and the escalation ladder, Care Recipient Mode, ride coordination, and family chat.
