Use case · Caregivers

A reminder app that tells a caregiver only when it needs to.

Caring for a parent or loved one means worrying about the reminders you cannot see. RemindRelay quietly handles the routine ones and brings you in only when a reminder goes unanswered — consent-based, proportional, and never a constant stream of alerts.

RemindRelay is not a medical device and is not for emergency, clinical, or life-critical use. Reminders are accountability nudges, not monitoring or care, and delivery is best-effort. See the Terms and FAQ.

Accountability without hovering

A daily check-in or medication reminder runs on its own. You are notified only if it is missed past the window you set — so you get peace of mind without micromanaging, and your family member keeps their independence.

Consent is built in

Trusted contacts and caregivers opt in before they can ever be escalated to, and can withdraw at any time. Caregiver mode is a calm, consent-based view — not surveillance and not emergency monitoring.

Escalation tiers you control

Decide exactly how far a reminder climbs and who is involved at each step. Most reminders never reach a person at all; the relay only goes as far as it must, then stops the moment someone acknowledges.

Channels that fit

The escalation channels this relies on most.

Tier 0 · Calm

Push Notification

The first, quietest tap on the shoulder.

Tier 1 · Nudge

SMS

A text that lands even when the app is closed.

Tier 3 · Urgent

Voice Call

When silence is not an option, the phone rings.

Tier 4 · Human

Caregiver Alerts

Loop in a trusted person — the last line that always shows up.

FAQ

Common questions.

Is this emergency monitoring?

No. RemindRelay is not emergency monitoring, not a medical device, and not a substitute for professional care or emergency services. It is an accountability tool with best-effort delivery.

Does the person being cared for have to consent?

Reminders are owned and configured by their owner; anyone added as a trusted contact or caregiver must opt in before they can be escalated to, and can withdraw consent anytime.

How do I avoid being spammed with alerts?

You only receive an alert when a reminder goes unacknowledged past the tier you set. Routine, acknowledged reminders never reach you.
