Pingo: The Ultimate Parental Control and Location Tracking App for Kids

Pingo, a companion app to Findmykids, provides parents with comprehensive location tracking and parental control features for their children's smartphones and smartwatches. This app is designed exclusively for children and teenagers' devices.

Begin by downloading the Findmykids app on your phone. Then, install Pingo on your child's device and enter the activation code provided in Findmykids. That's it! You're ready to utilize the powerful features of Pingo.

Key Features:

• Real-time Location Tracking: View your child's current location and a detailed history of their movements throughout the day on an interactive map. Ensure your child's safety by monitoring their whereabouts. Compatible with both smartphones and smartwatches.

• Surround Sound Monitoring: Listen to the audio environment surrounding your child for reassurance. (Requires app installation and setup on the child's phone.)

• Remote Alert System: Send a loud signal to your child's phone if it's misplaced or on silent. This also works with smartwatches.

• Screen Time Management: Monitor app usage on your child's phone to ensure they are focusing on learning and not excessive gaming during school hours. Pingo functions as a robust parental control tool.

• Location-Based Notifications: Receive timely notifications when your child arrives at school, returns home, or reaches other designated locations.

• Low Battery Alerts: Stay informed about your child's phone battery level and receive notifications when it's running low. This also applies to smartwatches.

• Secure Family Chat: Communicate with your child through a secure in-app chat featuring fun stickers and voice messaging capabilities.

Basic location tracking is free after device connection. Other features, such as parental controls, have limited functionality in the free version. A subscription unlocks all features.
