Once the application is installed, you must create an account. This account retrieves information to facilitate the approval of the institution.
1 –On the first page, you must choose Create an account.

Preferred GPS transport: We have 4 favorite transports.
The car icon, the bike and the walk are transports that use the GPS functionality of the phone. They work even if your phone is locked. They calculate your movement with the traffic and your delay will adjust every minute. So if you are caught in an accident or traffic, no worries, our app will adjust the arrival time according to your position.
The timing icon is manual. It does not use GPS functionality and does not correct the time to arrive based on your positioning. The time chosen is the time that will be sent.
Depending on the preparation time specific to each institution, your positioning will be displayed in the console when you enter the perimeter.
12 – You will find on this page the icon « < » which means a return to the previous page.L’icône de chronométrage est manuelle. Il n’utilise pas la fonctionnalité du GPS et ne corrige pas le temps d’arriver en fonction de votre positionnement. Le temps choisi est le temps qui sera envoyé.
Add a child or children.

A little overview of the application
1 – The « Today » icon is by default when starting the application and it allows you to recover your child in 2 clicks.
2 – The « you » icon allows you to display what is connected to you. It allows you to modify your profile (5), to add new child (6), to add guards (7), to disconnect from the application (8) and you have the version of the application ( 9).
3 – The « Notifications » icon allows you to see all the details of your recoveries.
4 – The « Calendar » icon is currently under construction.
Addition of a Guardian (under construction)
A caretaker is the definition of a person other than you who has access to recover on your behalf the child. We can cite as an example, a grandmother, a sister, etc. It’s a delegation that we give one day only. The person must create an account to access this childless mode. They will receive your children when you delegate the day. However, we have left the choice to the primary parent to pick up the child even if there is a delegation. Which means that the Guardian will see the child disappear once recovered as the parent.
