People you care about deserve protection that never sleeps.
GuardianCircle runs on Android: it checks suspicious texts and calls, optional message-app notifications, and anything they share with you — then sends caregivers a plain-English report with what to do next.
- No credit card required
- Free for caregivers
- Built for clarity, not jargon
For anyone scammers try to pressure.
Fraud hits older adults hardest — but it also targets newcomers to smartphones, people living alone, disability communities, and anyone stressed or rushed. GuardianCircle is built for clear, calm decisions, not security jargon.
- Older adults and seniors — the most targeted group in Canada
- Adults who are new to texting, banking apps, or unknown callers
- People with cognitive, vision, or language barriers
- Family and friends who want a second set of eyes from afar
In the app
- Dashboard — protection on/off, weekly checks, recent activity
- History — filter safe vs risk; every scan logged
- Report — recommended action first, then what happened
Large type, high contrast, and plain language — the same experience for the person protected and their caregiver.
