Android Version

The Cryonics Institute’s Check-In App is a simple personal alarm system that checks if you’re all right at scheduled intervals throughout the day.

If you don’t respond, it alerts your selected friends, family and emergency resources by text message so they can call or check in to make sure all is well.

It is ideal for standby notifications, as well as for anyone who wants the peace of mind of knowing a loved one is all right.

App available for free on Google Play for Android.
