Life-Link.App

Stay connected in small, trusted circles. Post wellbeing status, alert Emergency Contacts when you need help, and share optional Apple Health context in emergencies.

Life-Link.app is free to download. Start with a 30-day trial, then continue for AU $4.99/year, or a one-off payment of AU $39.99. Life-Link.app helps people stay in touch in small, informal groups of two or more. No social media — just being social. Only people you invite can see your status or chat with you. You might live alone and want low-pressure contact with people you trust — to say "I'm OK" or "I NEED HELP!" and know the right people will see it. You might be a friend or relative who gets a nudge when someone wants to connect, or an alert when they need support. Or both: one carer supporting several people, or one person with several contacts looking out for them. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Post wellbeing status — "I'm OK", "Feeling unwell", or "I NEED HELP!" — so Emergency Contacts are notified immediately • Receive notifications for alerts, replies, and activity from contacts you care about • Group chat with your Life-Link connections • Share location when you choose, with map context during an active emergency (only when enabled) • Add optional profile details (e.g. medical notes) that approved Emergency Contacts may see on the emergency dashboard when you ask for help WELLBEING & HEALTH DATA Life-Link.app is not a medical device and does not diagnose conditions. Core alerting works from the status you choose to post — no wearable or health app required for basic use. Wellbeing status (user-initiated): You choose when to post Feeling Great, OK, Unwell, Feeling Bad, or I NEED HELP! Optional notes included. Updates appear on your Timeline and notify approved Emergency Contacts. Optional Apple Health data (permission required): On the Life-Link iPhone and iPad app, you may allow Life-Link to read a limited set of data from Apple Health — only after you grant permission in your device settings. Nothing is read silently in the background for this purpose. When permitted, the app may read: heart rate (recent samples over roughly 24 hours) and step count (24-hour total and recent hourly activity). During an active I NEED HELP! alert with emergency location sharing on, a snapshot from your phone (heart rate and steps, when available) may be shown to approved Emergency Contacts on the emergency dashboard — context only, not diagnosis. Snapshots may refresh during the emergency (uses more battery). Contacts cannot browse your health history outside that context. We do not sell health data, use it for ads, or monitor you for marketing. The app may remind you (not your contacts) if device battery is critically low and not charging. Wellbeing statuses, notifications, chat, and emergency location sharing work fully without Apple Health. Health data is always optional. BACKGROUND LOCATION (ONLY WITH YOUR CLEAR PERMISSION) Optional and only for emergency support: after "I NEED HELP!", and only if you allow background access, location may be shared with your Emergency Contacts for up to 24 hours — nobody else, not for ads. Without that permission and status, background location is not used for sharing.
