Features & Capabilities

KinderSmart is an attendance tracking solution for iPhones for parents dropping children off at childcare providers. The application connects to the Controltec KinderConnect backend system, which is used by state and local government agencies to support subsidized childcare operations.

The system registers a parent’s iPhone by scanning a QR code. The parent must be present in the KinderConnect host database. Once a registered parent enters the facility, he or she scans a QR code displayed at the facility, which essentially logs the parent into the system.

Checking children in and out of care mimics the process done with pen on paper sign-in sheets, a process most parents are familiar with.

Step 1 – Child Selection Once a user has scanned the QR code at the childcare provider, the list of children assigned to this user is displayed on the screen.

Step 2 - Transaction The user performs the check-in or check-out transactions or transactions by indicating which child is checked in, checked out or absent by tapping the appropriate buttons on the screen. Then the user provides a signature and submits the record by tapping Submit.

Step 3 - Confirmation The system confirms the transaction.

Summary: For a practiced user, this takes a few seconds and collects the following authentication data elements: • Name of user • Signature • Time of transaction • Location of transaction • Attendance records for each child, with type of transaction and optional note

It doesn’t make sense that the state REQUIRES you to use this app to make sure all your information is entered in their system so you can get paid but then the app doesn’t even work. I downloaded the app and it completely crashed my computer and literally won’t get off the login screen on my phone… completely delete the app plz 🤦‍♀️😭

Once you’re registered correctly, it’s really easy to use. I like that I don’t have to keep track of the days my kiddo attends daycare. Especially since I pay by the day. You just click on the month you want to see and it shows clock in/clock out times or “absent.” It crashes once in awhile but the daycare is able to manually enter later. Overall, good choice.

The app works pretty well except the UI is stretched to the edges of the screen so when I try to add a note for example, I can’t tap done or cancel because they are at the top of my screen where I can’t touch them
