Scammers call, text, and email older adults every single week. Porchswing Protect is the calm, human answer — built for seniors, backed by real technicians you can actually talk to. YOUR PHONE, PROTECTED Activate with the same code as your Porchswing Protect plan — your iPhone or iPad takes one of your plan's device slots, right alongside your computer. The home screen shows you, in plain language, that you're protected. IS IT A SCAM? Almost every scam does one of three things: it pretends to be someone you trust, it stays vague, or it rushes you. The app walks you through all three in plain English — plus a one-tap button to send us anything that worries you. A real person looks at it. SECURITY CHECKUP A friendly, step-by-step checkup: is your software up to date, is a passcode set, is Find My on, are unknown callers silenced? Seven checks, each with plain-English guidance. Nothing is ever faked — a check only shows green when it's really true. SCAM ALERTS When a scam is going around — a fake Medicare call, a phony delivery text — we post an alert so you hear it from us first. GET HELP FROM A HUMAN One tap reaches your Porchswing technician. No phone trees, no offshore call centers. We're the company your senior center already knows. Porchswing Protect requires an active Porchswing Protect plan (purchased at porchswingtechnology.com or in person). Your plan covers this device and your computers together.
