Playwarden: Playground Safety

Playwarden is the offline playground inspection app for safety inspectors, parks crews, schools and child care centers. List the equipment once, then run quick routine checks or a full audit, rank every hazard, and hand the owner a signed PDF report before you leave.

SURFACING AND USE ZONES, WORKED OUT
• Enter each piece's fall height and surfacing once
• Loose-fill depth readings are compared with the CPSC handbook's depth table as you measure
• Poured rubber, tiles, turf and wood fiber are checked against the maker's rated height
• Use zones are worked out for each type: swings, tire swings, slides and everything else

ROUTINE CHECKS AND FULL AUDITS
• Short checklists for weekly or monthly condition checks
• Comprehensive audits add surfacing depth readings and use-zone measurements
• Each type of equipment gets its own checklist, with handbook section numbers
• The whole playground is checked too: surfacing coverage, debris, drainage, trip hazards

HAZARDS RANKED BY PRIORITY
• Tap anything that is wrong and set priority 1, 2 or 3
• Close equipment until it is repaired, and mark what you fixed on site
• See every playground's closed equipment, open hazards and due dates at a glance

QR TAGS AND PHOTOS
• Scan an equipment tag to open its checklist
• Photograph each hazard for the report

SIGNED PDF REPORTS
• Hazards worst first, closed equipment at the top
• Equipment table with fall heights, surfacing depths and use zones
• Your company name, logo and certification number, with the inspector's signature
• Share by email or print from your phone or tablet

BUILT FOR THE FIELD

Now in Spanish. Playwarden follows your phone's language. PDF reports have their own language setting (Settings > Report language), so you can work in Spanish and still send reports in English.
