TESTIMONIALS

What people are saying about Solo Alert

These are real experiences from people who use Solo Alert or support someone who does. Many live alone, while others use the app to stay connected with a family member who values their independence.

Solo Alert is designed to provide reassurance that someone will be notified if a check-in is missed — helping people stay independent while giving families and carers peace of mind.

“Living on my own has always been something I enjoy, but there’s always a little worry in the back of my mind about what might happen if there was an accident. What if I had a fall when I'm on the stepladder reaching for something on top of a cupboard, or even touch a loose wire in my toaster?

Solo Alert lets me keep my independence while knowing that if something goes wrong, someone I trust will be alerted. It’s simple, discreet, and gives me peace of mind every single day.”

Doris S, Solo Alert User

“Solo Alert has been a real game-changer for me. Living alone, I often worry about what would happen if I needed help but couldn’t reach my phone. This app gives me peace of mind. Just a simple tap twice a day. 

Knowing that my neighbour is only moments away and will be alerted if I don’t check in means I stay independent and connected at the same time. I’d recommend Solo Alert to anyone living alone who wants that extra layer of security and comfort.”

Eddie T, Solo Alert User

“I recently had knee replacement surgery and wanted to stay at home during my recovery instead of moving in with family.

Solo Alert gave everyone peace of mind. I checked in twice a day, and if I didn’t, my brother would be notified.  A week or so into using it, I forgot one day and missed a check-in — my brother called within minutes.”

Audrey C, Solo Alert User

“I have to say I’m feeling much more relaxed since starting with the Solo Alert app.  I missed one ‘check in’ and my son texted me within minutes.  Great idea!!!!”

Carol E, Solo Alert User

“After my heart surgery, my daughter worried every time I didn’t answer the phone straight away. Solo Alert changed that. I check in twice a day, and that’s it.  

One morning I felt dizzy and couldn’t reach my phone.  I missed my check-in. Solo Alert notified my daughter and she came over immediately to check on me.”

Doug P, Solo Alert User

“My sister lives with MS, and the unpredictability is the hardest part for all of us who care about her. She values her independence, but there’s always that quiet worry: what if something happens and no one knows?

Solo Alert keeps us connected without being intrusive. She sets her own check-in routine, and only if she misses one are we gently alerted.

No pressure, no constant checking in — just quiet reassurance for us, and uninterrupted independence for her.”

Giovanni F, Solo Alert Safety Circle Member

“Traveling alone used to feel risky, but Solo Alert keeps my friends and family in the loop no matter where I am. It’s so reassuring for everyone.”

Katie B, Solo Alert User

“I don’t want to wear a pendant as I don’t want to feel “OLD”! And I can’t wear a fall watch as I get dermatitis.

Solo Alert let’s me check-in and get on with my life and my family know to check on me if I miss a check-in.

Such a simple concept and a life saver!”

Ivory C, Solo Alert User

“I’ve had a couple of small strokes over the past few years. I live on my own and value my independence, but I know things can happen.

I don’t feel unwell, don’t want to wear a pendant and watches give me dermatitis.

Solo Alert gives me a quiet sense of reassurance each day. I simply check in, and if I ever didn’t, the people who care about me would know to check on me.

It’s a small habit that makes a big difference.”

Maggie N, Solo Alert User

“I live alone and recently had a scare — my dog snuck in front of me and I tripped down a couple of stairs. Only my pride was hurt, but it really made me think - what if I had been injured and couldn’t get up to call for help?

I realised in that moment how important Solo Alert really is. My niece talked me into getting the app and set it up for me, and I'm so glad she did.  It’s so easy to use — I just tap on my phone when the app prompts me and let it know I’m okay.”

Paul S, Solo Alert User

“I use a wheelchair and I live on my own and have done so for years.  I like doing things my way without anyone hovering over me.

However, if something unexpected ever happened — a fall, a transfer that didn’t go quite right — I know someone I trust would be notified if I missed a check-in. Solo Alert means I can get on with my day and most importantly stay independent, without feeling like I'm being monitored.”

Mike S, Solo Alert User

“I’m deep in a home renovation project and I do a lot of the work myself.  I work from home on Fridays, and sometimes I don’t have weekend plans other than working on the house.

It crossed my mind that if something happened on a Thursday night, no one would realise until I didn’t show up for work on Monday.

Solo Alert gives me peace of mind that if I miss a check-in, someone will know to check on me.”

Zane T, Solo Alert User

“So easy to set up - clean, intuitive and easy for me to read. Easy check-in process.”

Anna H, Solo Alert User

“In our Indian family, it’s always been understood that children care for their parents as they get older. I’ve always felt that responsibility deeply — my father means the world to me. My mother is no more, and he insists on living alone in the family home. 

He’s proud, independent, and doesn’t want anyone watching over him. Solo Alert has been the perfect balance — it lets him live life his way, while I still have peace of mind. 

It’s such a relief knowing he still has his independence — and I’m still fulfilling my part in caring for him, just in a modern way.”

Gitanjali K, Solo Alert Safety Circle Member

“I’m so grateful for Solo Alert. One evening, I missed my check-in and didn’t hear any calls because my phone was on silent. Within minutes, my daughter was heading out the door to check on me.

Knowing that I’m never really alone gives both of us so much peace of mind. Solo Alert worked exactly the way it should — and that’s priceless.”
