Find My Kids is a mobile application that allows parents to monitor the location of their children. The family GPS-tracker was created in 2016 and it is used to track locations. It is intended primarily for tracking the geo-location and movements of a child using a mobile application or special children's watches with GPS support.[1] The service notifies parents of the exit from the established zones and records the child's movement history in the absence of access to the Internet. The application has about 3 million users worldwide.[2]
Origin[edit]
The Find My Kids app appeared on the local market in June 2016. The aim of the developers was to create an application that would allow parents to not worry about their children. The project received a very positive response from the target audience in 2017,[3] and the company began to develop rapidly. The team consisted of nine people in December 2017, and now employs about one hundred people a year on.
Among the countries where Find My Kids app is most popular are Turkey, India, Italy, Brazil, the United States, Indonesia, the UK, etc.
About the company[edit]
The mobile application Find My Kids is the first proprietary product of Geo Track Technologies Inc.[4] The company has been developing its own software “Geo-tracking platform” since 2017. The platform's peculiarity is the use of machine learning mechanisms,[5] due to which the accuracy of coordinate determination is significantly increased and the battery life of the device is preserved.
Over 100 people are currently working on the support and development of the service.
The founders of the project Find My Kids plan, in the near future, to launch several new products based on the platform,[2] including a platform for monitoring corporate employees; GPS tracker for pets and farm animals that does not require recharging.
Functioning principle[edit]
Find My Kids is a modular automated system with a client-server architecture. Two mobile applications are key parts of the system:
- The mobile application Find My Kids is designed to obtain information about the location, movement and surroundings of the child from devices on which the connected mobile app Pingo is installed.[6][7]
- The application Pingo uses modern methods for determining geolocation (via mobile network, Wi-Fi networks, and GPS) and uses its own patented methods of processing geodata, which in most situations allows you to determine the location of a device with an accuracy of 20-100m. The data collected by the application is sent through the server to the app Find My Kids, which is installed on the parent's phone.
Applications work via the Internet. In its absence the app accumulates data and sends the location information after connecting to the network.
Use of the application is allowed only with the consent of the child.[8] Personal data is stored in accordance with the law, kidSAFE Internet safety[9] and privacy certificate and GDPR policy.
