Your kids will grow up knowing what you did. Hey Dad is how they find out who you were — in your voice, on the days they need it.
First responders get 3 months free — applied at checkout.
Getting this for your firefighter?“My kids will be able to have this forever no matter what happens to me.”
— Brookscole27, App Store review
The job doesn’t run on a schedule. You miss bedtimes, birthdays, and ordinary Tuesdays — and you carry a risk most dads never think about. Hey Dad lets you put the things that matter into words now, so your kids carry your voice with them whether you’re working a 24, away for training, or just not there to tuck them in.
“You can’t promise you’ll make every game. You can promise they’ll always have your words.” For the dads who show up
Maybe your kids are grown. Maybe the job kept you away more than you wanted, or there are things you’ve never found the time to say. A message they don’t see coming — opened years from now, or when they need it most — can carry what a busy life never let you say out loud. It’s never too late to be heard.
Speak the advice, the pride, or the apology that’s been sitting with you for years.
Their graduation, their wedding, the day they pin on their own badge — be there with words they never expected.
Leave something behind they can open on the hard days — proof that your love never clocked out.
Guided prompts and story ideas spark the message only you can leave.
Tap once and speak — advice, a story, a memory for each child.
Each message waits safe in their vault, unlocking exactly when it should.
Record the advice, the stories, the truth you want them to have. Say it the way you would at the kitchen table after a shift.
Choose when it opens — a graduation, a wedding, a milestone years away, or simply “the day you miss me.” It waits, sealed, for the right time.
When the day comes, they hear your voice — a reminder of who they are, where they come from, and how much you love them.
“Every shift, you give everything for people you’ll never meet. This is how you make sure the people who matter most never have to wonder what you’d have told them.”
As a thank-you to the firefighters, officers, and medics who put themselves on the line every day, your first three months are completely free. No commitment — start recording the words your kids will carry for life.
