A Phone app that looks like theirs
Keypad, Contacts, and Calls look just like the iPhone, so the skills carry over. Prefer Android? Switch in settings.
Practice only. It never makes a real call.
Hero Dial is a pretend phone that looks just like the real one. Kids practice finding the keypad and dialing 911, Mom, or Grandpa, so the real thing feels familiar if they ever need it.
Go on, try it. Dial 9-1-1 and press the green button.
How it works
911 is ready to go. Add Mom, Dad, Grandma, or a neighbor. Use real numbers or pretend ones. They stay in your account.
The whole screen becomes a Phone app that looks just like yours. A friendly mission says who to call.
A practice voice answers, points add up, and memory mode checks whether the number has really stuck.
Why it works
When a child is scared, the hard part often isn't knowing the number. It's finding the keypad on a phone they barely use. Hero Dial practices the whole thing: open the app, find the keypad, dial, and talk.

Guided mode shows the number. Memory mode hides it, so you can see if it has really stuck.
Your numbers appear among pretend neighbors, so kids practice finding the right person.
A light game layer keeps practice fun without timers, ads, or anything to buy.
Safety first
Hero Dial is for practice, not for emergencies. We keep the child's side simple and collect as little as possible.

Practice calls never leave the screen. The app can't use the phone line, texts, or your contacts.
You type the practice numbers yourself. We never read the contacts on your phone.
You pick your country's emergency number. We never ask where you are.
No ad networks, no data sales, and nothing hidden for kids to tap and buy.
AI practice calls are not saved unless you turn on sharing in settings, and you can turn it off anytime.
Numbers, AI, and billing sit behind a parent gate, away from curious fingers.
Every practice call says it's practice, and every mission reminds kids to find a grown-up or use a real phone when someone truly needs help.

Questions
No. Hero Dial is a website that can't use your phone line. Every call is pretend and stays on the screen, even when your child dials 9-1-1.
Most families start at around 4 to 8 years old. That's when kids can learn a number and are starting to pick up a phone.
No. It works in Safari or Chrome. For the most realistic practice, add it to your Home Screen. It then opens full screen like a real app.
With the AI plan, a practice helper answers the call and talks back, so kids can rehearse what to say. You have to turn it on and accept a disclosure, and there's a monthly limit. Calls are not recorded unless you opt in.
Your email, the practice numbers you add, practice progress, and subscription status. We don't create child accounts and we don't ask for your child's name.
