What the app covers for parents

The app is for parents and guardians whose children attend kindergarten (barnehage), school or SFO, the after-school care that runs alongside school. It collects what would otherwise arrive as notes in a backpack, emails and separate logins into one place. A parent with a child in kindergarten and another in school sees both in the same app.

The listing describes four main jobs: reporting absences, messaging staff, checking children in and out of after-school care, and approving consent requests. Notifications and login options support those jobs.

Reporting absences and answering consent requests

Parents can report a child's absence from within the app, which the listing says takes seconds. Consent requests from the school or kindergarten are answered through the Parent Portal, so forms do not have to be filled in on paper or by email.

Because the same app holds every child, one absence report or consent answer is made for the right child without switching accounts.

Messages with teachers and staff

The app lets parents send and receive messages directly with teachers and other staff at the kindergarten, school or SFO. Messages sit in the same app as absence reports and consent requests, so the conversation about a child is kept with the rest of that child's information.

The listing does not describe message length, attachments or how far back the history goes.

After-school care check-in and notifications

Parents can check children in and out of SFO from the app. The listing presents this as part of the same daily routine as absences and messages.

Push notifications are sent when something new happens, so parents do not need to open the app to see whether anything has changed. Direct access to the Parent Portal is available from the app when a parent wants more detail.

Signing in with BankID or biometrics

One login covers all of a parent's children, and the Parent Portal opens from the app without a separate password. Sign-in can use BankID, or fingerprint or facial recognition on the phone, which the listing says keeps personal data for parents and children protected.
