What happens if I don't have anyone to notify?
You can still use our service! We offer a "Self-Notify" option for those without a trusted notifier. With Self-Notify, the service automatically activates after a specified period of inactivity (customizable by you). You'll receive regular check-in requests, and if you fail to respond within your set timeframe, your actions will be carried out automatically.
How Notification Works
How does After I Am Gone know when I've passed away?
After I Am Gone uses two mechanisms:
- Notifier Confirmation: A trusted friend or family member confirms your death using a shared password before any action is taken
What if my notifier reports me as deceased while I'm still alive?
Don't worry! You'll receive an immediate email notification that your service has been activated. You can log in to your account and cancel the activation within 24 hours. No files will be deleted or shared during this grace period, giving you time to respond.
Can I change my notifier?
Absolutely! You can update, remove, or add notifiers at any time through your account portal. The new notifier(s) will receive a confirmation email before they can verify your status.
What if I no longer trust a notifier?
You can remove them from your account immediately through the user portal. They will no longer have the ability to confirm your status or trigger any actions.
