Are You Dead? - Peace of mind for you and your loved ones

What is Are You Dead?

Are You Dead? is a peace-of-mind app designed for people who live alone, travel frequently, or simply want to reassure their loved ones.

You decide how to use it: you can use it to confirm that you are okay and notify your contacts if something might be wrong, or simply to receive alerts when someone you care about does not check in.

Confirm regularly that you are okay. If you do not confirm in time, your emergency contacts will automatically receive an alert by email and notification.

Main features

🔔

Multiple reminders

Get several reminders before alerts are sent, so nothing is triggered just because you got distracted.

📧

Email and push alerts

If you don’t check in, your contacts receive automatic alerts by email and push (if they have the app installed).

👥

Up to 3 free contacts

Add up to 3 emergency contacts and easily manage who should be notified.

🛡️

Privacy first

We only use email. We never request your location or unnecessary data. Your data is stored on Google’s Firebase infrastructure.

⚙️

Configurable frequency

Choose how often you check in: every 12 hours, 1, 2, or 3 days.

🆓

Completely free

Free app supported by non-intrusive ads. There will always be a fully functional free version.

How does it work?

If you want the app to watch over you:

Choose how often you want to confirm that you are okay: every 12 hours, 1, 2, or 3 days.
The app sends you several reminders before your time runs out.
If you still don’t confirm in time, an automatic alert is sent to your emergency contacts.
You can add up to 3 emergency contacts for free.

If you only want to receive alerts about others:

Someone else adds you as an emergency contact in their app.
You don’t need to add contacts or confirm anything yourself.
You just need to keep notifications enabled.
You’ll get alerts when that person does not confirm they are okay within the chosen time.

Frequently asked questions

Is it really free?

Yes, the app is 100% free. It is supported by non-intrusive Google AdMob ads. In the future we may add optional premium features, but there will always be a fully functional free version.

What happens if I do not confirm in time?

If you don’t confirm within the time you chose, your emergency contacts will receive an email and a push notification (if they have the app installed) letting them know that you have not checked in.

How many reminders will I get before my contacts are alerted?

The app sends several reminders before the deadline so you can confirm at your own pace. Only if you ignore all of them will your contacts be notified.

Can I change the confirmation frequency?

Yes, you can choose to confirm every 12 hours, 1, 2, or 3 days from the Preferences section in the app and change it whenever you want.

I do not receive the verification email, what can I do?

First, check your Spam or Promotions folders and search for the sender noreply@are-you-dead-4b7da.firebaseapp.com. If you use Hotmail/Outlook, the email may take a few minutes to arrive or be filtered more aggressively, so wait a bit before requesting a new one. Only tap “Resend email” if the message has not arrived after several minutes.

Are my data safe?

Yes. All your data is stored in Firebase (Google infrastructure), encrypted in transit and at rest. You only share information with the contacts you choose. We comply with GDPR and only request the minimum data needed for the service to work.

Does it replace emergency services?

No. This app is an auxiliary tool and does NOT replace official emergency services (112, police, medical services). In a real emergency, you must always call the official emergency number in your country.

How do I delete my account?

You can delete your account at any time from the app (Profile → Delete account). All your data are permanently deleted from the main database.
