How Guardian detects arrival at School
Guardian compares the child phone’s reported location with the family’s configured School safe zone. Once the arrival is confirmed, trusted adults can receive a notification that the phone has reached the area.
Permissions, connectivity and battery optimisation influence how quickly the phone reports. The latest map position, battery level and update time remain available when more context is needed.
Guardian is not an emergency service. Location and notifications can be affected by GPS, connectivity, permissions, battery settings and operating-system restrictions.
