SMS Messaging Terms
Checkup ("Checkup", "we"), made by Redbud Software LLC, is a mobile app that reminds people to book recurring appointments for their household — medical and dental visits, pet care, home upkeep, and vehicle maintenance. Users who opt in inside the app can receive some of those reminders as SMS text messages. This page describes that messaging program.
What messages you'll receive
If you opt in, Checkup may send you:
- Appointment reminders — a nudge when something you track comes due, so you can book it.
- Booking updates — status changes on an appointment you asked Checkup to book for you (for example, that it's confirmed).
- One-time verification codes — sent once, when you confirm your phone number during opt-in.
Typical messages look like this:
Checkup never sends marketing or promotional texts, and messages are only about the reminders you yourself set up in the app.
How you opt in
Text messaging is off by default and is not required to use Checkup. You opt in inside the app — Settings → Notifications → Text reminders — by entering your mobile number, agreeing to the consent language shown there, and confirming the number with a one-time verification code, so messages can never be turned on for a number you don't control. The opt-in screen looks like this:
In-app screen — text reminders
The toggle is shown in its default off state — you must actively turn it on and verify your number to receive texts. Consent to SMS is a separate, optional control and is never bundled with any other agreement.
Phone numbers are never enrolled by anyone other than you, and consent is never purchased, rented, sold, or shared.
Message frequency
Frequency varies with how many reminders you track and how you've paced them. For a typical household it's a few messages per month; reminders for the same item repeat no more than about monthly by default, and you control each one's pace in the app.
Cost
Checkup doesn't charge for these messages, but message and data rates may apply from your mobile carrier.
How to opt out
Stop at any time by replying STOP (or STOPALL, OPTOUT, CANCEL, END, QUIT, UNSUBSCRIBE, or REVOKE) to any message. You'll get one confirmation that you're unsubscribed, and no further texts will be sent. You can also turn off text reminders in the app's notification settings. To resubscribe, reply START or turn the toggle back on in the app.
