Cookie Management

Does the app cost money?

Yes and no. When you download the app for the first time, you'll have the option of purchasing either a troop or family account. Whichever you purchase will give you access to the app for that season. Any additional user accounts (labeled 'Parents' in the app) that you create will be able to login and access the app for free. Additionally, if you choose not to renew for the following season, you will still have access to all of your data from the season you did purchase.

Why do you charge for each season?

There is a robust infrastructure behind the scenes that support the app and data synchronization between devices. The fees I charge in the app help offset the monthly costs to keep everything running.

What's the difference between troop and familiy accounts?

Troop accounts provide full access to the app. You'll be able to add all members of your troop and create accounts for them. They will be able to download and use the app for free and there is no limit to the number of user accounts you can add. This is the account that troop leaders and TCMs should purchase.

On the other hand, family accounts provide basic access to the app. You'll still be able to add multiple user accounts but will be limited in the number of Girl Scouts you can add. You also will still get the same data synchronization between devices that the troop account gets. If you're a Girl Scout parent who wants to track your inventory, sales, and payments, then this is the account for you.

What devices does the app support?

The is available in both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store and will work on almost every iOS and Android device, both phones and tablets.

How do I add user accounts?

User accounts are called "Parents" in the app and are how you allow parents (and even Girl Scouts) in your troop to log into the app. To create one, you'll first need to log into the app, tap on Girl Scouts and add a Girl Scout. Once the app finishes saving the new Girl Scout, you'll see a section called "Parents" just below the Girl Scout's name fields. Tap the "Add" button next to it and fill out the various fields. The app will automatically send an email to them with instructions on accessing and logging into the app.

How do I keep my parents from accessing other Girl Scouts' data?

When you create an user account, you are tieing it to a specific Girl Scout. If you do not give them Troop Cookie Manager privileges (by checking the corresponding box when creating their account), then they will not be able to change any other Girl Scouts' data or see sensitive information such as how much they owe and have paid. They will still be able to see how many cookies the other Girl Scouts have in inventory and have sold.

If you do not want them seeing any inventory data for other Girl Scouts, then you'll need to go to the home screen, tap the hamburger icon in the top green bar, tap "Manage Troop" and check the box "Hide Inventory From Non-TCMs".
