Please read this first: School Check-In App only works if your school is already enrolled with us. Your school creates your account and sends your sign-in details, and if your school is not shown in the app list, your school also gives you the access code (labelled "school invite code" in the app) that reaches it. There is no public sign-up, so if your school does not use School Check-In yet, this app will not work for you. SCHOOL PICKUP, WITHOUT THE CHAOS You pull into the pickup line and park. You tap one button. Staff inside see your arrival on a live dashboard, listed in the order families arrived, and dismissal carries on the way your school already runs it. No walkie-talkies, no paper lists, no one shouting numbers across the parking lot. HOW IT WORKS 1. Your school sends a welcome email. Set a password and you are ready, on your phone or in any browser. 2. The first time you open the app, choose your school from the list, or enter the invite code your school gave you. 3. Park, then tap Check In. A quick location check confirms you are at the school. 4. Your family pickup ID appears on the staff dashboard straight away, in arrival order. WHAT PARENTS GET One-tap check-in. One big button, and your pickup ID is on the staff screen instantly. Permanent access for the adults you trust. A co-parent, a grandparent or a caregiver each get their own login for your pickup ID, and you can remove anyone at any time. Same-day links. Send a one-time link to someone picking up just for today. It expires at the end of the school day. Your pickup status at a glance, so you always know where the day stands. Dark mode for early-morning and late-afternoon pickups. A help center with step-by-step fixes for the usual phone problems, plus a direct line to support and to the school office. ABOUT LOCATION The app asks for your location so it can confirm you are actually at the school when you check in. It is read at the moment you tap Check In. It is not tracked in the background and it is not used for advertising. The day check-in records are cleared automatically every night. WHO THIS IS FOR Parents, guardians and the trusted adults they share pickup with, at schools that use School Check-In. Accounts are created by the school, and the app has no public sign-up. GETTING ACCESS If your school already uses School Check-In and you have not received your welcome email, contact your school office. If you would like your school to use it, tell us at schoolcheckinapp.com/contact.html and we will follow up.
