Messaging and Notifications

Conversations between parents and teachers stay in your school's own app, and every update from school reaches parents' phones as an instant notification.

What it solves

Personal phone numbers, scattered group chats and missed news wear down school-family communication.

  • Messages on personal numbers Conversations happen in the Funikid app instead of on personal phone numbers.
  • Missed updates Announcements, attendance, meals and events land on the parent's phone as a notification the moment they are saved.
  • The same message typed again and again Besides individual messages you can send group messages, so the same information reaches everyone at once.

How does communication work?

Teachers and staff stay in touch from the panel or the mobile app, parents from their phone.
