Track and Monitor
Each time your child boards or alights the school bus, they will be required to tap their BusMinder card onto an electronic card reader. Each time this happens, an instant alert will be sent to your mobile phone via the BusMinder app, showing that your child has safely boarded. You will receive a second alert once they arrive at their destination.
Using GPS technology, parents can view the location of the school bus throughout its route, making tracking your child's bus journey easy and simple to follow.
Setting Alerts
BusMinder allows parents to set personalised alerts to prepare them for the morning departure and afternoon arrival of the school bus. The BusMinder app will inform you of how many minutes the school bus is from your designated bus stop and alert you when the bus is close by - simply choose the bus route, select your nearest bus stop and set the alert duration.
We love using the BusMinder app – knowing exactly where my son is while travelling to and from school provides peace of mind. I also love the phone reminders each morning – it lets us know how far away the bus is and he hasn't missed it since!
