“sǐ死le了me么”Appràng让dú jū独居qīng nián青年gǎn dào感到bèi被guān xīn关心
Recently, a Chinese app called "Are You Dead?" has become very popular.
This app is designed for people living alone; users need to check in daily on the app.
If a user doesn't check in for two days, the app automatically notifies an emergency contact.
The app's name is very unique, so many young people have downloaded it.
There are many "empty nest" young people in China who live alone and face work and life pressures, sometimes feeling lonely.
Although elderly people in China also use safety apps, "Are You Dead?" is mainly for young people.
Many young people feel that although they like freedom, sometimes they also want someone to care about them.
This app allows them to keep from bothering others while letting family or friends know their status.
The app costs only 8 yuan, and many people think buying peace of mind is worth it.
Now, "loneliness economy" services like pets, companionship, and psychological counseling are becoming more popular because many people need company and care.
