FAQ
What is Voop?
Voop is Therapeutic Digital Safeguarding for looked-after children. With Voop, children are safer, go missing less, and feel more independent. Placements are more stable, and care outcomes improve.
How does Voop work?
Each child gets a Voop phone: a modern Android smartphone with protections built in. Carers then manage every child's phone remotely from the Voop app, agreeing protections with each child, turning on Bedtime, and getting alerts if something's wrong. Any carer on the team can do this, from anywhere, on any shift.
What is Therapeutic Digital Safeguarding?
Therapeutic Digital Safeguarding keeps children safe online without surveilling them or putting carers in conflict with them. Children can see their settings, protections are agreed with each child and their care team, and nothing they say or send is recorded. It’s safeguarding through trust, not surveillance.
How does Voop help with missing incidents?
Carers are alerted when a child leaves a safe place or a blocked caller tries to make contact, so they can step in early. If a child does go missing, teams can use temporary emergency location sharing to get them home safely, sooner.
How does Voop make homes calmer?
With Bedtime, phones automatically reduce distractions, so carers never have to confiscate them. That removes a common source of daily carer-child conflict, and everyone sleeps better.
Will Voop work across our teams and shifts?
Yes. Voop is built for care teams, not families. Any carer on the team can manage a child's phone remotely, so children get the same protections from every carer, on every shift. Every change is recorded in a shared audit log.
Do young people like Voop?
Yes. Voop was co-designed in the UK with young people at Compass Community who are now using Voop. Research with Kids Industries across 34 looked-after children aged 8–16 found near-universal acceptance when Voop was introduced transparently. Of the young people using Voop today, 75% feel safer and 88% feel more independent.
How quickly can we get started?
