## Description

**Just Checking In** is a private daily emotional check-in app for staying connected with family, friends, and trusted supporters. Share how you feel with one tap, build an emotional wellness habit, review mood history, and communicate through private in-app chat.

Create a trusted circle, set custom reminders, and enable missed check-in notifications when needed. Premium adds extended history, annual check-in patterns, multiple scheduled check-ins, and SMS alerts for a chosen contact—even if they do not use the app. Vacation Mode lets you pause reminders while traveling or offline. Just Checking In supports connection and peace of mind; it is not therapy, medical care, an emergency service, or a crisis line.

## Review summary

Reviewers praise the app's concept and core features—easy mood tracking, a support circle for accountability, and flexible reminders that help users stay connected. The app's simplicity is a plus for people living away from loved ones. However, recurring issues include reminders failing to deliver, clunky navigation/onboarding, and occasional instability. The pricing model—many features behind a subscription—is a common concern, and users want more content, prompts, and analytics. Overall, it's a promising, approachable mental health tool with room to improve reliability and depth.
