HeroDial

Practice only. It never makes a real call.

Practice the call
before it counts.

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.

  • Looks like a real iPhone or Android
  • No real calls, ever
  • No ads, no contact import
  • Free practice. AI coaching optional

Mission: call Emergency

now

Tap these numbers on the Keypad, then the green button.

911

Go on, try it. Dial 9-1-1 and press the green button.

How it works

Three minutes a day. One less thing to worry about.

  1. 1

    Add the numbers that matter

    911 is ready to go. Add Mom, Dad, Grandma, or a neighbor. Use real numbers or pretend ones. They stay in your account.

  2. 2

    Hand over the pretend phone

    The whole screen becomes a Phone app that looks just like yours. A friendly mission says who to call.

  3. 3

    Celebrate every brave call

    A practice voice answers, points add up, and memory mode checks whether the number has really stuck.

Why it works

Kids remember what their hands have practiced.

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.

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.

Guided, then memory

Guided mode shows the number. Memory mode hides it, so you can see if it has really stuck.

A busy phone, like a real one

Your numbers appear among pretend neighbors, so kids practice finding the right person.

Missions, points, and streaks

A light game layer keeps practice fun without timers, ads, or anything to buy.

Safety first

Made for kids. Run by parents.

Hero Dial is for practice, not for emergencies. We keep the child's side simple and collect as little as possible.

Never a real call

Practice calls never leave the screen. The app can't use the phone line, texts, or your contacts.

No contact import

You type the practice numbers yourself. We never read the contacts on your phone.

No location

You pick your country's emergency number. We never ask where you are.

No ads, no tracking

No ad networks, no data sales, and nothing hidden for kids to tap and buy.

No recordings by default

AI practice calls are not saved unless you turn on sharing in settings, and you can turn it off anytime.

A parent gate on settings

Numbers, AI, and billing sit behind a parent gate, away from curious fingers.

Real emergencies need a real phone

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

Good questions from careful parents.

Can Hero Dial call 911 by accident?+

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.

What ages is it for?+

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.

Do I have to install anything?+

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.

What does the AI plan add?+

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.

What information do you keep?+

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.

Can I cancel anytime?+

Yes. You can manage or cancel the AI plan from Billing in parent settings. Free practice stays free.

Give them the practice. Keep the peace of mind.

Free to start. Set up in two minutes. Works on the phone you already have.
