3. How can I sync events from Parentr to my personal calendar?
To easily sync Parentr events to your calendar, follow these simple steps:
1. Open the Parentr app.
2. Go to your Account page and select “Calendar.”
3. Connect your preferred calendar (Apple Calendar or Google Calendar) by following the on-screen prompts.
Once connected, your Parentr events will automatically appear and stay updated in your personal calendar—no extra steps needed!
4. Can I communicate directly with teachers through Parentr?
Parentr is designed mainly for parents to coordinate events, manage tasks, and streamline communication within parent groups. While teachers can join and participate, direct teacher-parent communication (such as discussing academic performance or classroom concerns) typically happens through your school’s official communication channels. Parentr complements school communication but doesn’t replace direct interaction with teachers or school administrators.
5. How does Parentr ensure the privacy and security of my child’s information?
Parentr takes your child’s privacy very seriously. We implement robust security measures, including:
• Secure data storage using trusted industry-standard encryption.
• Limited data access, ensuring only authorized users within your group can view personal information.
• Strict privacy controls, allowing you to manage who sees specific information within your groups.
• Compliance with privacy regulations to protect your family’s personal data.
Your child’s information is safe, secure, and always under your control.
6. What if I encounter issues with the app?

7. Can I customize reminders and notifications in Parentr?
Yes, Parentr provides customizable reminders and notifications to suit your preferences. All users will receive essential push notifications by default. However, premium users have the added benefit of advanced controls, allowing you to selectively enable, disable, or customize specific notifications according to your needs.
