Start a phone club!

The friends in the class, the team, the street call each other themselves, for free and without a mobile. Nobody feels left out, and nobody has to borrow a parent's mobile.

Sound familiar?

Three children, each on their own phone, connected in a triangle
Everyone with a Barnluren calls each other for free.

"Mum, can you ask if Nils can play?"

You are the go-between in every playdate. Message the parent, wait, reply, agree a time. The child stands beside you, waiting for you.

"Can I borrow your phone?"

The child wants to call grandma or a friend, and the only way is your phone. With everything else that lives in it.

"Everyone else has a mobile."

You have said no, maybe the whole class has said no. But nobody has said how the children should reach each other instead.

"Can I speak to him?"

Grandma wants to talk to the child, but it is you she calls, and the child gets the phone second-hand. And the child never calls grandma on their own initiative, because there is no phone to do it from.

What you get

For you

  • You are not alone with your no. When the class decides together, every parent is saying the same thing.
  • Grandma calls the child directly, and the child calls grandma. Without going through you.
  • You know who the child can talk to. Only contacts you have approved get through.
  • No location tracking. The phone stays at home, and no third party gets the child's location.

For the child

  • Nobody is left out. When the whole class is in the club, everyone can call everyone.
  • A phone and a number of their own, that rings when a friend calls.
  • Calls by themselves and asks 'do you want to play?', without going through an adult.
  • Direct access to friends, grandma and cousins, from home.
  • Learns to take the initiative, agree with others and keep to times.

How a phone club works

  1. 1

    Gather a few families

    The class, the football team, the neighbourhood or the cousins. Send this page to the group chat, so you can see who is in.

  2. 2

    Order together

    One parent orders several Barnluren in the same order, and the more you order the bigger the discount per phone. Each family gets a claim code and sets up its own phone at home.

  3. 3

    The children call each other

    The friends are in each other’s phone books from day one. The child picks up the receiver and calls by themselves. The calls are free, and only approved contacts get through.

Common questions

Does everyone have to buy at the same time?
No. The club grows as more join. But do start a few at the same time, so there is someone to call from the first day.
Can the extended family be in it?
Yes, with Friends & Family (40 kr/month). Grandma, cousins and godparents are added in the app, and the child calls them the same way as the friends.
Who decides who the child can call?
You. Only contacts you have approved get through. If a child wants to become a contact, they send a request that you approve in the app.
