Pinwheel Caregiver

Solve the kid/phone problem with Pinwheel. No need to figure out which parental controls manage which device best! Pinwheel custom-built a system to give you the proper tool to teach your child healthy tech habits from day one.

This Pinwheel app provides access to our Caregiver Portal. The Caregiver Portal is designed to let you configure and control a Pinwheel smartphone for your child. The phone and the app work hand-in-hand to give your kid a healthy, safe first phone.

In this app, you can:

- Safelist contacts. A Pinwheel phone can only call and text with numbers approved by you. No strangers, no spam calls.
- Enable apps. No app store on the Pinwheel phone keeps app choices in your hands, not your child’s. The curated app boutique makes it easy to choose useful, healthy, safe apps for your child. No social media, no addictive games, no mindless consumption.
- Schedule Permissions. Our Days/Modes calendar lets you choose which contacts and apps are available at what times of day. No texting friends during school, no staying up late using apps. You choose what they can do during different times of day. No need to constantly remind them what is and isn’t ok. Pinwheel helps them develop healthy boundaries around technology use, without the drama.
- Create Routines. Help your child learn to be more independent and responsible with Pinwheel’s fully-customizable checklists. A morning routine to make sure they’re ready for school on time, with teeth brushed and backpack in hand. A bedtime routine for evening peace. Routines for chores, for music practice, for anything you’d like your kid to do without you telling them for the millionth time. Gold stars and confetti help them celebrate their daily wins and nurture good habits as they ask to stay on track.
- Parent Them Well. Live Status shows you the location of the phone. Text history and a Bark subscription allow you to monitor and coach them on appropriate communication.

“Waiting as long as possible” for a phone isn’t a plan. Giving them a phone designed for adults and hoping you set up all the controls correctly is a recipe for stress. Pinwheel solves the kid phone problem, with a phone designed to work for both of you.

You get a tool to teach them how to use technology well. They get a phone that helps them live their best life.
