A simple phone for seniors, without buying a new phone.

AuraDial is an easy-to-use Android app for seniors and older adults, with big buttons, a giant clock, one-tap calling, and daily family check-ins.

AuraDial home screen with giant clock, four favorite contacts and quick tools
A senior-friendly phone made simple

Turn the Android phone you already own into an easier phone for seniors.

Many families search for the best phones for seniors or cell phones with big buttons, but a new device is not always necessary. AuraDial replaces a busy Android home screen with a calm, clear layout that is easier to see and use.

Unlike general apps for seniors, AuraDial organizes everyday phone tasks in one place: four favorite contacts, a giant clock, useful tools, voice readout, and a simple daily check-in for family peace of mind.

Why we built this

“Dad stopped answering his phone every morning.”

For weeks, the whole family took turns calling him at 9am — just to hear his voice and know he was okay. When he didn't pick up, the panic started.

Modern smartphones weren't built for him. Tiny icons, endless notifications, apps he'd never asked for. He didn't need a supercomputer. He needed a phone he trusted.

Now every morning he taps a single button — “I'm alright” — and everyone in the family instantly knows he's safe.

💙

Simplicity for seniors.
Confidence for families.

AuraDial isn't just another launcher. It's a calmer phone for the person you love — and a quiet, respectful signal to you that everything is okay today.

Before check-in — gentle reminder

Before check-in — gentle reminder

At 09:00 a soft red banner appears at the top of the home screen: “Daily check-in due.” No pop-ups, no alarms — just there when they're ready.

After check-in — peace of mind

After check-in — peace of mind

The banner turns green: “Checked in for today — well done!” Family gets the update instantly, and the reminder disappears until tomorrow.

One tap to check in

For the family

A simple way to say, “I’m alright.”

The older person chooses to tap “I’m alright.” AuraDial then shares that check-in with linked family members. Communication travels from the older person to family only.

🌅

Morning check-in

At 9:00 (or whenever you choose), AuraDial gently asks: “Are you alright today?” One tap answers.

➡️

One-way check-in

The older person actively sends their check-in to linked family members. AuraDial does not detect or alert family about a missed check-in.

📍

City-level location — only if allowed

Off by default. When on, it's shared once a day with the check-in — never live-tracked.

Included with the Family plan. Up to 2 family members.

Themes

Five thoughtfully crafted color themes — from calm sky-blue to warm sunset.

Questions

Good to know.

Can I use my existing Android phone?+

Yes. AuraDial installs like any other app from Google Play and works on Android 8 or newer. You do not need a new phone.

Does it replace Android completely?+

It replaces the home screen (the launcher). All of Android is still there underneath — but your loved one only sees the simple AuraDial screen. You can switch back to the default launcher any time in Android settings.

Can multiple family members connect?+

The free plan is a simple phone for one person. The Family plan ($49/year) lets up to 2 linked family members receive a check-in when the older person chooses to send one.

What happens if the internet goes down?+

The phone still works normally — clock, favorites, one-tap calling, flashlight, magnifier and camera all keep working offline. Sending a check-in to linked family requires a connection.

Is my location always shared?+

No. Location sharing is off by default. When you turn it on, only a city-level location is shared once a day with the daily check-in — never live GPS tracking.

Can I disable tracking entirely?+

Yes. You can turn off location sharing, family sync, and even the daily check-in at any time from Settings. AuraDial still works as a simple phone.

Is there a free trial for the Family plan?+

Yes — 7 days free. Cancel anytime from your Google Play subscriptions. The launcher itself is free forever.

When will it be available on iPhone?+

Apple doesn't allow apps to replace the home screen on iOS, so AuraDial can't be a true launcher there. We're building a simpler iOS companion app — join the waitlist below and we'll email you when it's ready.

iOS does not allow apps to replace the home screen, so AuraDial can't be a true launcher on iPhone. We're building a simplified iOS companion app — big-button dialer, favorite contacts, and daily check-in — that seniors open like any other app. Join the waitlist and we'll email you the moment it lands on the App Store.

Important safety information

AuraDial is not an emergency service, medical alert device, or monitoring service, and it does not detect missed check-ins. It does not replace calling 911 or your local emergency services. Families should maintain their own regular contact and emergency plan and should never rely on AuraDial as the only way to check on someone’s safety.
