Studybugs is a free Android application designed to help parents report their child’s absence from school in a safer and better way. With just a few taps, you can notify the school of your child’s absence, and provide all the necessary information about their illness. The application automatically updates the school’s electronic registers, ensuring that no child is left unaccounted for.

One of the most important features of Studybugs is that it improves safeguarding by enabling the verification of your identity. This ensures that the school is notified by the actual parent or guardian in case of an absence. Additionally, the application provides guidance on whether your child should be kept off school and reminds you to keep the school posted.

Studybugs also offers a free account to users when they sign in for the first time. This account provides access to additional features on the Studybugs website, including a map showing illnesses going around near you.
