The only “app” your loved one needs is their phone.
Check-ins arrive as a regular phone call or text message — any phone works, including landlines and flip phones. The app is for you: your family dashboard, right on your home screen.
The short answer
Nobody has to install anything. The person receiving check-ins just answers their phone. And for you, everything works in an ordinary web browser — the app is simply the same dashboard, one tap away on your home screen.
Two people. Two very different jobs.
MyDailyCheck was designed so the technology sits entirely on your side of the relationship.
For your loved one
Nothing to install. Ever.
- Works on any phone that can receive a call — landlines and flip phones included
- They answer and press 1, or reply OK to a text. That's the whole job.
- Nothing to download, install, charge, or learn
- No internet, no smartphone, no passwords
For you and the Care Circle
The dashboard in your pocket.
- Today's status at a glance — a green check means all is well
- Alerts the moment a check-in needs attention
- Manage the Care Circle and check-in schedule from anywhere
- Pause for vacations, hospital stays, or family visits
Add it to your home screen
About thirty seconds, no app store required. And if you'd rather not install anything either — the website does everything the app does.
On Android
- Open mydailycheck.ca in Chrome and sign in
- Tap Install when Chrome offers it — or find “Get the App” in your dashboard Settings
- The icon appears on your home screen
On iPhone or iPad

On any computer
Nothing to install at all. Sign in at mydailycheck.ca from any browser — the full dashboard is right there. Many families simply keep a tab open with their morning coffee.
The questions families ask
My parent doesn't have a smartphone. Does this still work?
Absolutely. MyDailyCheck works with any phone that can receive a call — including landlines and flip phones. No smartphone needed. No app needed. No internet needed.
Do they need to install an app?
No. The core check-in works entirely through phone calls and text messages. There's nothing to download, install, or learn.
Is there an app for me to check on them?
Yes — your dashboard works on any phone and installs to your home screen like an app. On Android, open mydailycheck.ca in Chrome and tap Install (or find "Get the App" in your dashboard Settings). On iPhone, open it in Safari, tap Share, then "Add to Home Screen." Your loved one still doesn't need anything — the app is just for you and your Care Circle.
