Stay Connected. Ensure Your Voice is Heard.

Dead Man Switch is your automated personal safety companion, designed to provide peace of mind for you and your loved ones. Whether you're traveling alone, working in high-risk environments, living independently, or simply want a fail-safe way to communicate important instructions in an emergency, Dead Man Switch has your back.

How It Works:
A "Dead Man’s Switch" is a mechanism that triggers an action if the user becomes unresponsive. With this app, you create "Switches" with specific countdown deadlines. You simply need to "Check In" before the timer expires to confirm you are safe. If you miss your check-in, the cloud backend automatically notifies your trusted contacts via email with your pre-configured message.

Key Features:
• Flexible Switch Management: Create multiple switches for different scenarios (daily check-ins, solo trips, remote work) with custom countdown durations (Hours, Days, Weeks, or Months).
• Instant One-Tap Check-In: Confirm your safety in seconds directly from the dashboard.
• Live Countdown & Status: Clearly view your last check-in timestamp and active countdown deadline.
• Trusted Contacts: Easily manage your list of contacts (Name, Email, Phone) and assign recipients to specific switches.
• Automated Emergency Alerts: If a switch expires, our secure cloud backend automatically emails your pre-written emergency message to your chosen recipients.
• Local Reminders: Receive timely notifications on your device before deadlines arrive to prevent accidental triggers.
• Grace Period: Set a buffer time (up to 72 hours) before emergency messages are dispatched.
• Secure & Private: Protect your app with biometric lock (Fingerprint / Face ID).
• Multi-Language Support: Full support for English and Vietnamese.

Why Choose Dead Man Switch?
• Solo Adventures: Perfect for hikers, backpackers, solo travelers, and outdoor enthusiasts.
• Personal Safety: An essential failsafe for anyone living or working alone.
• Critical Instructions: Ensure important messages or emergency instructions are delivered if you're unable to do so yourself.
• Simple & Reliable: Intuitive interface backed by robust cloud infrastructure.
