And with push notifications of new tagged photos of your camper, you won’t miss a moment.

Ratings and reviews

Love this app. You can take a pic of your child(ren) so the app can do facial recognition and separate those pics from the whole batch. Gives option to either view all the pictures the camp staff upload or just ones with your child in them. I recommend viewing both ways as I have found several of my son in more photographs not separated (not an app mistake, just pics of my son with either partial or no face in the pics, making it difficult for the app to know it's your child). Highly recommend!

I like being able to access photos through the app, but the facial recognition feature is not very accurate. My daughter wears glasses, and while some of her photos were recognized, half of the photos tagged for her through the recognition were different campers that were wearing glasses. The shape of the glasses was not even the same for all, the face shapes and fullness, hair color, length, texture and style were different, the skin tone was different, and both boys and girls with glasses were tagged as my camper. So I am not even sure what parameters the facial recognition utilizes because there were no obvious similarities between any of the campers that were incorrectly tagged as my daughter. I still plan to use the app but will turn off facial recognition.

I do enjoy the facial recognition and getting real time alerts. I do NOT like that once you open the app, there is no way to see what time the alerts came through. For example, our camp sends notifications when kids leave for trips, arrive, and when they come back. I have no way to look at the time of those messages.
