Short answer
Not yet. Help Me currently ships only for iPhone, on iOS 15 or later, through Apple TestFlight. There is no Android app, no Play Store listing, and no web version that creates requests. If you are on Android in Fargo-Moorhead, nothing on this site works as a live request today.
The facts, in one place
- iPhone only, iOS 15 or later.
- Distribution is TestFlight, not the App Store, for now.
- No Android build and no request-capable web app.
- This website is readable everywhere. The app is not.
Why iPhone first
One platform, done properly, in one metro. Building a second app before the first one is genuinely good in a Fargo January would mean two mediocre apps instead of one that works when a battery dies at minus twenty.
What Android users can still do
Read. The Resources pages point to 911, campus public safety, 211, police non-emergency lines, and county services, and those work regardless of what is in your pocket. If someone in your household has an iPhone, they can install Help Me and ask on your behalf when it makes sense.
- Use the Resources pages for official numbers.
- Read the guides and answers on this site.
- Email support@helpme.fyi if you want to be told when that changes.
The short version
Help Me is a place to ask your block for the small stuff, and today that place is an iPhone app. Helpers can apply to be reviewed by our team. Help Me does not run background checks.
Help Me is not an emergency service. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911 or your local emergency number.
Questions people actually ask
No. This site is informational. Requests, chat, and the live map exist only in the iPhone app.
There is no waitlist today. Email support@helpme.fyi if you want to be told when that changes.
iPhones on iOS 15 or later.
