Phone in the bag? It'll speak up

Sometimes a person simply doesn't hear the phone: it's in a bag or another room. A loud call plays a short, loud chime on their phone — they'll see you're calling and respond.

When it helps

It's “Where are you?” said out loud

  • Phone in the bag

    You're calling for the fifth time, and Mum just can't hear it at the market.

  • Phone in another room

    Dad's in the garden, the phone's in the kitchen — a loud call carries further than a ringtone.

  • You just want to know

    One “I'm here” — and you can breathe out.

How it works

Warm, short — and not an alarm

  1. 1

    The person allows being called this way

    The switch is in their “Profile”. Without their “yes”, the family doesn't get the button.

  2. 2

    You tap “Are you there?”

    In the person's card — after “Where are you?”, when there's no answer.

  3. 3

    The phone calls out

    A warm, short chime like a doorbell — not a siren. It stops after half a minute or at the first touch.

  4. 4

    “I'm here” — and you know

    The answer comes with the location, just like “Where are you?”. The trust log shows who called and when.

Honestly about the limits

Good to know

  • Only the person can turn it onNot the admin, not the family. It can be turned off at any time.
  • No more than once every 5 minutesAnd the number of calls per day depends on the plan.
  • It's not SOSA different sound, a different screen. When someone feels unwell, there's “I need help”.
  • An internet connection is neededA phone that's off or has no signal won't hear the call.

Questions

About the loud call

How is this different from a phone call?

A phone call can go unheard, while a loud call is louder and waits for just one tap — “I'm here”.

How many times a day can I call?

1 on the free plan, 10 on YouPoint Pro, 20 on YouPoint Max.

Can I call a child this way?

Only if the switch is on on their phone. The child can see the switch and turn it off themselves.
