Stay Connected With Someone in Custody
HomeWAV is a communication app for approved family members and friends of people held in participating detention facilities. It supports remote contact without requiring every visitor to travel to the facility, making it useful for people who need a simpler way to manage calls, video visits, and messages from home.
Calls, Video Visits, and Messages
After creating an account and completing the required approval process, visitors can select a participating facility and add the person they want to contact. When the facility permits these services, the incarcerated person can start a phone call, video call, or message session. The app can also notify visitors when the person is available.
Remote video visits do not require an appointment when the facility supports them. HomeWAV also includes scheduling for onsite visits where that option is available. Rules and communication options depend on each detention facility, so some features may not appear for every user.
Account and Payment Tools
The app lets visitors review available funds, add money, transfer funds, and manage their saved credit or debit card information. Charges are based on the minutes used rather than a recurring plan or bundled package. Phone and video costs can vary by facility, and HomeWAV is not available at every location.
