## What is Santa Check?

Turn everyday good (and not-so-good) moments into holiday magic.
  
Santa Check-In gives parents and carers a simple, private way to track behavior throughout the season - and gives kids something genuinely exciting: a real, animated check-in with Santa himself to see where they stand. 
  
HOW IT WORKS
Log a moment in seconds - shared a toy, helped with chores, had a rough moment at bedtime. Each one nudges your child's standing with Santa. Then, whenever they're ready, they tap "Ask Santa" and watch an animated sequence build to the big reveal: the Nice List, Doing Great, Santa Is Watching, or a gentle nudge to try harder.
  
BUILT FOR PARENTS
  • Track multiple children, each with their own history
  • A quick, honest record of behavior - not a punishment log, a conversation starter
  • Manual overrides for special occasions (a surprise Nice List moment, anyone?)
  • Parent Mode is separated from your child's view, with an optional PIN so the magic stays intact
  
 BUILT FOR PRIVACY
 Santa Check-In works entirely offline. There's no account, no server, and nothing about your family ever leaves your device. Full details in our Privacy Policy, linked in Settings.
  
 BUILT FOR THE SEASON
 A festive check-in animation, snowfall, and sound - designed to feel like an event each time, not a chore.
  
 Santa Check-In includes a limited number of free check-ins, with an optional one-time purchase to unlock unlimited check-ins for the whole season.
