What would make you trust a family caregiving app?

I m launching NearHalo on Product Hunt this Saturday, September 12. I built it after my dad suffered a stroke while living alone. I wanted a calmer way for families to stay informed and coordinate support without taking away the independence of the person they care about. NearHalo has two perspectives: one for the person choosing to share, and one for the family members or caregivers they authorize. It is a consumer family wellness and care coordination app. It is not a medical device, professional monitoring service, or substitute for emergency services. Before launch, I d value candid feedback: 1) What would an app like this need to explain before you would invite a family member? 2) Which sharing or control features would most affect your trust? 3) What part of setup would concern you most? NearHalo is already free on the U.S. App Store. If this problem is relevant to you, follow the Product Hunt page and tell me what feels clear, useful, confusing, or missing: https://www.producthunt.com/prod... Thank you, Joseph.
