HOW PIKMYKID HELPS

> Take Stress Out of the Picture
You should be empowered with a tool that makes coordinating your kids’ transportation plans so easy, you never have to call the front office again.


> Experience Stellar Communication
As you make dismissal changes, school staff can see exactly when to release your student, who to release them to, and can notify you they’re been safely dismissed.

> Stop Wasting Time & Enjoy Rest
With smooth dismissals, parents spend on average 33-50% less time in the car line. This means you’ll have more time to spend with your kids outside of school.

> Feel Safer During the School Day
With a platform that helps prevent accidents, stranger danger, custody battles, and exposure to harsh weather, you can feel safer sending your kids to school.

HOW IT WORKS

Whether you need to communicate that your kid will be going home with a friend, or need to schedule an early release for a doctor’s appointment, Pikmykid lets you manage the process simply.

You no longer need to call the front office to make dismissal changes. Instead you can instantly update how and with whom your kid will go home, and even schedule future carpools.

> Announce Your Arrival
You’ll be able to announce your arrival on the app so the teacher knows to send out your kid. The car line moves quickly and staff can verify the right person is picking up your kid as well.

> Receive Dismissal Notifications
Once dismissed, you’ll receive a notification on your app letting you know. You can also receive info from school like when a bus is running late or about an upcoming field trip.

The original app worked great. I switched over to the newer version of the app as requested by pikmykid in an email. It has been frustrating. I can announce my arrival for my child, then when the announced for screen pulls up, it is always blank. This is problematic. If I forget the card I place in my window to pick up my son, I can't show the teachers who I announced for. I submitted a ticket March 8th and uninstalled and reinstalled the app. It still doesn't work. When will it be fixed?

Oh no! We sincerely apologize for the troubles you've had with the app. We'd be happy to take a look into this for you, please contact us at support@pikmykid.com. Thank you.

I'd give it 0 stars if I could. Spins and spins, force closes over and over...support within the app doesn't work. Email support told me it looked all set up and linked me to their training videos. Thanks, if your training videos answered my questions and resolved the continuous spinning and force closing, I wouldn't have emailed support in the first place! Not looking forward to using this app this year, nor looking forward to teaching my kids 60-something year old grandparents how to use it.

Good and bad. For what it does do it does it well , UI is simple and straight forward. However it is severely limited in its features. It only says your child has been released or not and to which form of travel(car,walk)not to whom they were released or who even announced themselves to pick them up. I don't care if it is me picking them up we should get a notification of who has announced themselves to pick them up and who actually did. Not too hard to add that feature for our kids safety.

Dear Cory, our app provides información on the main screen on the pick-up line for the day. Hence the notification does not display this information. Only two parents are allowed to pick up unless there is a delegate assigned. We don't provide private information from one user to another one for safety reasons. Thank you!
