Knockk is a family safety and check-in app that helps family members share check-in updates, confirm safe arrivals, and notify their family circle when attention may be needed.
The app is designed around user-initiated check-ins and temporary safety journeys rather than continuous location monitoring.
* Daily Safety Check-ins
Use simple check-ins to let your family know that you are okay.
* Send an "I'm Okay" check-in.
* Set check-in deadlines according to your routine.
* View the check-in status of family members in your family circle.
* Receive reminders when a scheduled check-in is approaching or missed.
* Safe Arrival Journeys
Create a temporary journey when travelling between destinations.
* Set an expected arrival time.
* Choose the family members who should receive the journey update.
* Confirm your arrival when you reach your destination.
* Use a grace period to allow for normal travel delays.
* "I'm Not Okay" Status
Knockk provides a user-initiated status for situations where a family member may need attention.
* Activate the status through the app.
* Confirmation steps can help reduce accidental alerts.
* The status is shown to the relevant family circle members.
* Mark yourself safe when the situation has been resolved.
* Temporary Safety Journeys
Knockk can support temporary journey-based safety updates without requiring continuous monitoring.
When location sharing is available and you choose to use it, location information may be used for the selected journey or safety feature. Location access and behavior depend on the permissions and settings enabled on your device.
* Family Notifications
Knockk can provide reminders and family notifications related to check-ins and journeys.
The notification sequence may include:
* A reminder before a check-in deadline.
* A deadline notification.
* A grace period for missed check-ins.
* A family notification when a check-in remains incomplete.
* Emergency Assistance
Knockk provides quick access to emergency contact information and safety resources available in your region, where supported by the app.
The app may provide access to numbers such as:
* National Emergency: 112
* Police: 100
* Medical/Ambulance: 108
* Women Helpline: 1091
* Child Helpline: 1098
Knockk may also provide an SOS option for notifying members of your family circle.
Emergency calls or messages are not made automatically without the required user action and device permissions.
* Family Setup
Create or join a family circle using the account and invitation options provided by the app.
Family members can use the available check-in and safety features according to the permissions and settings they choose.
* Privacy and Permissions
Knockk is designed to use permissions according to the features you choose to use.
Depending on the features available in your version of the app, permissions may be used for:
* Location sharing during selected safety features.
* Notifications for check-in reminders and family alerts.
* Phone or communication features when you choose to contact an emergency number.
* Other device permissions required by specific app features.
You can manage or revoke permissions through your Android device settings. Some features may not work if the required permission is not granted.
* Important Safety Notice
Knockk is a family communication and safety-support application. It is not an emergency dispatch service, professional monitoring service, or replacement for local emergency authorities.
The app should not be relied upon as the sole means of obtaining emergency assistance. In an immediate or life-threatening emergency, contact the appropriate local emergency service directly.
