THE COMFORT OF KNOWING

Your people.
At a glance.

Home, work, school, or somewhere in between. KinDial brings the everyday rhythms of your household into a single, thoughtful view.

01 / TOGETHER

One dial for everyone.

Each person has a hand on the clock. See their last shared place or status, with confirmation times to help you understand how recent it is.

02 / YOUR PLACES

Make it your own.

The household owner can add and edit shared place names and icons. Each member privately sets up what those places mean on their device.

03 / YOUR CHOICE

A little more flexibility.

Confirm a status yourself, or enable automatic place updates on the device you carry. Updates depend on permissions and when iOS allows a check.

CLOSENESS, WITH BOUNDARIES

A place name.
Not a pin.

Your household sees “Home” or “School.” The saved address and map boundary behind that name stay on your device.

A few words about privacy

Same name. Your own meaning. “Work” can mean your office on your phone and your partner’s workplace on theirs.

Saved place coordinates and boundaries are encrypted on your device and excluded from backups. They are not synced to iCloud or KinDial’s household server.

AT HOME IN YOUR HOME

A little more you.

Elegant finishes. Colorful personalities.

GOOD TO KNOW

A little clarity.

Simple answers.
Because privacy should be easy to understand.

Can my household see my exact location?

No coordinates or saved place boundaries are included in household status updates. Your household receives a named place or status and its confirmation time. Someone who knows what “Home” means can recognize the place, but does not receive a map pin.

Who can add or edit places?

The household owner manages the shared place names and icons. Each member privately sets up the corresponding locations and arrival areas on their own device.

Can I choose my status myself?

Yes. You can confirm a status manually. This pauses automatic reporting for your account until you select a reporting device again and enable the required settings.

Is every status live?

The dial shows the last shared information. Confirmation times and “Last known” labels help you see when an update may be older. Automatic updates depend on permissions, device settings, and when iOS allows location checks.

What about place search and weather?

These optional Apple services are separate from household sharing. Place search sends your search text and, when available, the map area to Apple Maps. Optional iPad weather sends an approximate location to Apple for weather and city-name lookup. Your saved place boundaries are not used for weather.

Is KinDial just for families?

A household can be a family, partners, friends, or people living together. KinDial gives the people in your household a shared view of familiar places and statuses.
