ScoutMe for parents

1. Build the profile together

1. 1Download ScoutMe from the App Store or Google Play.
2. 2Tap “Create Account” and choose “Player”.
3. 3Fill in the position, team and a short bio together.
4. 4Choose together which video goes up first.

Every player account is checked by a person on the ScoutMe team before it appears.

2. What others see

• Name, photo, position, team and whatever your child posts.
• The phone number and email are never shown on the profile.
• Photos lose their location data when they are uploaded, so they don't reveal where they were taken.
• Posts with photos and videos of young players may be checked before they go live.

3. Who can talk to them

Only people connected with your child can send messages: people who added them and whom they added back.

When a scout, club or coach adds your child, a notification arrives. Look at that profile together before tapping “Add Back” or “Add”.

4. If something feels wrong

1. 1Open the other person's profile and tap the three dots at the top right.
2. 2Choose “Block User” so they can't see your child or talk to them.
3. 3Or choose “Report User” and a reason, for example “Child safety concern”.

The report goes to the ScoutMe team, and the other person is not told who sent it.

5. Settings worth knowing

• Settings open from the gear icon on “Profile”.
• “Notifications”: choose what sends a notification to the phone.
• “Blocked accounts”: see and undo anyone you have blocked.
• “Delete my account”, at the bottom: permanently removes the profile, posts and messages.
