Frequently Asked Questions

How does the game detect when I pick up my phone?

Check Please uses your phone's motion sensors (accelerometer) to detect when the phone is tilted or picked up. This works even when your phone is locked!

Does the app drain my battery?

No! We use battery-efficient sensors and minimal background processing. You can play multiple games throughout the day without noticeable battery impact.

Can I cheat by turning off my phone?

Nice try! If your phone disconnects from the game, you'll be marked as having "checked" your phone. Keep it on and face-down!

How do I invite friends to my crew?

Go to your Crew tab and tap "Invite". You can share an invite link via text, or give them your crew code to enter manually.

What happens if no one picks up their phone?

Then everyone wins! You all enjoyed a phone-free meal together. That's the real prize.

How do I delete my account?

Contact us at support@phonesdown.net and we'll process your account deletion within 48 hours.
