Alfred is a private household assistant that sends reminders, chore and grocery updates, and calendar confirmations by text message to the people who live in one home.
Alfred is the messaging layer for a household hub — a touchscreen and voice assistant installed in one home. It is not a public product or marketing service. Alfred sends text messages only to the phone numbers of people living in that household who have directly opted in to receive them.
Chores, appointments, and to-dos the household has scheduled.
A short text confirming an event was added, moved, or is coming up.
Notice when an item is added to a shared household list.
Day-to-day household notices, such as a delivery or doorbell alert.
Alfred does not send marketing, promotions, or any message on behalf of a third party. Every message originates from the household's own account owner.
Joining the household and receiving text messages are two separate choices. A household member can join Alfred and use everything it offers (shared calendar, chores, grocery lists) without ever opting in to SMS. Text notifications are an optional extra that the member turns on by checking the box below, and can turn off at any time.
↑ The form household members complete. Only members who check the optional SMS box receive text messages.

Effective for the Alfred household notification service. Last updated August 2026.
Alfred collects the phone numbers and names of household members who choose to enroll, along with the content needed to send household reminders, calendar confirmations, and checklist updates.
Phone numbers are used only to deliver the household notifications described on this page. Message content is generated from the household's own calendar, chore, and grocery data — Alfred does not use enrolled numbers for any other purpose.
Message frequency varies with household activity, typically a few messages per day. Message and data rates may apply from your mobile carrier.
A household member's phone number is retained only while they remain enrolled. Replying STOP removes the number from active messaging immediately.
