First-time setup
Open or install the web app
Open Amar Sathi in Chrome. You can use the browser menu and choose Add to Home screen / Install app when the option is available. This creates an app-like icon on the phone.
Save a trusted family contact
Open পরিবার / Family. Enter the primary family member’s name and mobile number. Add the doctor’s name and number if desired, then press Save.
Add medicines
Open ওষুধ / Medicine. Enter a medicine name, time and dose. Press Add. When the medicine is taken, use Taken today.
Enable notifications
Open Reminders and press Enable notifications. The current web beta is most reliable while the web app is active. A future native Android version is planned for stronger background reminders.
How to use the main features
🆘 Emergency Help
The emergency screen includes three actions: call 999, call the saved primary family contact, or prepare an emergency SMS that can include the phone’s current location. Location permission is requested by the browser. The user remains in control of sending the SMS.
✅ “I am OK” check-in
Tap আমি ভালো আছি / I am OK to save the latest check-in on the device. If a primary family number is available, the app can open a prepared SMS so the user can reassure the family.
🩺 Doctor & Health
Save blood group and allergy notes and quickly call the saved doctor. This section is for convenient personal reference; it is not a medical record system and does not provide diagnosis or treatment advice.
🌐 Bangla / English
Use the language button in the app header to switch between Bangla and English.
What is stored?
In the current web beta, entered contacts, health notes, medicine entries and check-in information are stored locally in that browser using local device storage. Clearing browser data or using the app on a different browser/device may remove or not carry over that information.
