With listening enabled, automatic playback can use the phone’s speaker or connected headphones. Available messages can also be replayed from the inbox.

A “Got it” they choose to send
Your child can tap “Got it.” You see their explicit reply separately from delivery and playback status.
The tutorial includes real receiving audio: music lowers, Mum’s message plays, then music returns. Automatic playback depends on the receiving phone’s settings, connectivity and audio state. Watch all setup tutorials →

What happens when the headphones are on?
Got That sends the message to your child’s paired phone. Audio follows that phone’s current output.

Read the full headphone & playback guide →Connected to their phone
AirPods, Bluetooth or wired headphones must be connected to the phone receiving Got That messages. Headphones connected only to a console, laptop or another device will not receive that phone’s audio.
Listening on, permissions allowed
Enable family listening and notifications. Music, videos, the lock screen and Focus or Do Not Disturb settings can affect automatic playback. Try a message together in your usual setup.
An inbox when they need it
If automatic playback is unavailable, your child can open and replay an available message. Their “Got it” reply is optional, and always a tap they make.

A few useful answers.
Does it play automatically through headphones?
Automatic playback can use the receiving phone’s current audio route, including headphones connected to that phone. Turn on family listening and allow notifications. Playback depends on connectivity, permissions and the phone’s audio state. If it does not play, your child can open an available message in the inbox. Read the headphone guide.
What happens during music, YouTube or other videos?
The phone and the other app control how audio is handled: media may quieten, pause or prevent automatic playback. Try a message together with the apps your child actually uses. Got That does not promise to interrupt every app or audio session.
Will it work with the screen locked or the app closed?
Background delivery and automatic playback depend on the receiving phone’s permissions, listening settings and audio state. Focus, Do Not Disturb, silent mode, battery restrictions or force-closing an app can affect the result. Check the iPhone and Android settings guide and test your usual setup together.
Does “Got it” mean the app detected that my child listened?
No. “Got it” is an optional button your child taps. Delivery and playback status are separate from that reply. A delivered or played message does not establish that a person heard or understood it.
Do both phones need the app?
Yes. Install Got That on the parent’s phone and the child’s phone. Pair them with a QR invitation and parent approval. Both phones need internet access, but they can use different networks. A child needs no separate Got That sign-in or email address; normal app-store download requirements still apply.
Can our family mix Android and iPhone?
Yes. Parent and child roles are available on both platforms, and one family can mix them. Audio and background settings differ by phone. See how to set up a mixed-device family.
What happens after the free trial?
The 14-day card-free trial starts when you pair your first child. It does not automatically become a paid subscription. Choose a monthly or annual family plan to keep sending after it ends. Buying during the trial starts paid billing immediately. See pricing and trial details.
Can someone outside our family contact my child?
Only approved family devices can exchange messages in your Got That family. Recordings are encrypted on the sending phone for the paired recipients. There are no public profiles or outside contacts. Read the privacy policy.
Can we use Got That for emergencies?
No. Got That is for everyday reminders and family coordination. Delivery, automatic playback and a response cannot be guaranteed.
