About this app

Pingo is a companion app to Findmykids, our app for parents. Please only install this app on a device used by a child or teenager.



We recommend you start by downloading the Findmykids app on your phone. After that, install Pingo on your child's device and enter the code from the Findmykids app you received when you signed up.
Done!
Now these two devices are connected and you can use the GPS tracker.



OUR KEY FEATURES:

GPS locator – see your child's location on the map and the history of the day's activity - an online location diary. Make sure that your child does not go to dangerous places

Sound around – listen to what's going on around your child to make sure they're okay

Loud signal – send a loud signal to your child's phone if they have left it in their backpack or on silent mode and can't hear the call

Parental control – find out what apps they used at school, whether they played in class instead of learning

Notifications – make sure your child is on time for school: get notifications when they get to school, back home, and other places you've created

Battery control – remind your child to charge the phone on time: you will be notified if the battery is about to run out

Family chat – chat with your child in the chat room with fun stickers and send voice messages


You can see your child's online location for free once the devices are connected. Other features in the free version are available with restrictions. To use all the features of the app, you should buy a subscription.


The app asks for the following permissions:

- access camera and photos - to install the child's avatar;
- access contacts - to fill in the phone book in GPS-watch;
- accessibility services - to limit time at the smartphone screen
- access the microphone - to send voice message


In case of technical problems, you can always contact Findmykids 24-hour support via support chat in the app or by e-mail support@findmykids.org

MASSIVE flaw- does NOT work after phone restarts, requires a login/unlock for the background pingo service to actually start which (almost) defeats the whole purpose of this being an emergency locator service... dumb design. Brought this to developer's attn 3-4 years ago, still nada. And even when it does work, the location updates can be very late/delayed.

Worst app ever. I've had it for awhile and I've never really minded it but all of a sudden it's just trying to force me to give it all of these new permissions and it's not even anything reasonable. It wants me to give the app permission to control my whole phone, and that's really just outlandish. Every 15 seconds (I timed it), it keeps sending me to the accessibility part of my settings, distrupting everything I'm doing. I've had this app for a couple months now,and it's suddenly started this?

I paused my subscription 3 months ago then cancelled the subscription and app yet today you have taken £6 from my account. I can't find it on subscriptions cause I cancelled it so now can't find how to stop and it and get my refund....you had NO right to charge me. Please fix this problem and send me my money back. I didn't like or need it at the time and now use life360 instead for free.

What’s new

Hear that? How could you not? It's like there's a little ringing sound. Ding-ding. Yep, it's the reminder bell, telling you it's time to update the Pingo app!
