Turn chaotic afternoon pickup into a smooth, coordinated dismissal. One subscription for your whole school — at a fraction of the cost of the competition.
Carline Hound is the #1 app for fast, safe, and stress-free school car rider line dismissal. We take the hair-pulling frustration out of organizing students for the carpool pickup line — a remarkably simple app for a genuinely complex job.
Built for school administrators and staff (not parents), Carline Hound turns chaotic afternoon car rider dismissal into a smooth, coordinated process across your entire building.
WHY SCHOOLS CHOOSE CARLINE HOUND
One low-cost subscription covers your whole school — one person subscribes, then invites everyone else. No per-user fees.
A fraction of the cost of competing carline and dismissal solutions.
Dismiss car riders from the classroom or a central assembly point — you choose.
Display the live pickup list on a TV or Smartboard so staff, teachers, and students see upcoming cars and names in real time.
KEY FEATURES
Bulk-upload your car riders from an XLSX spreadsheet (names, numbers, and teachers).
Set the number of pickup spots in your school's car line.
Move forward and backward through the dismissal list at any time.
Email-verified, password-protected accounts for student privacy and safety.
New users must be approved by your school before they can join.
Broadcast lists to a large screen via Apple AirPlay mirroring.
HOW IT WORKS
Each car rider family is assigned a number and displays it on arrival (up to 4 carpool numbers per vehicle).
Walker — records the numbers shown by each car as it pulls into the line.
Marshal — watches names appear in the assembly area and dismisses groups of students to their cars.
Classroom View — shows each teacher which of their students are up next, so they know exactly when to send a child to the pickup point.
Large Display — broadcasts upcoming groups to a big screen so the whole room stays ready.
Every view advances automatically as the Marshal dismisses each group — keeping classrooms, marshals, and walkers perfectly in sync.
Speed up dismissal, cut the chaos, and keep students safer — for a fraction of the cost of the competition.

I am so absolutely grateful for Carline Hound! I have only had a few hiccups along the way with the app, but they have been solved by trial and error on our end. The biggest thing I have learned is to cut off my wifi as the line walker. Also, we have one person who goes ahead of the line walker and writes down numbers on a paper 20 cars at a time. This speeds me up because I don’t have to answer questions or check about parents without cards as I go. We have 2 lanes that merge into 1, and that makes it super confusing! If there were only 1 lane, I could probably do it without the other person. Again, so glad we found Carline Hound!
Give it a Try!

This will be our 3rd school year to use this App on our campus. I can honestly say prior to us using Carline Hound, the flow of the dismissal line was very inconsistent. The support staff has been very helpful with any issues that may arise. If you or your campus are looking to make your carline dismissal process run smoother, look no more!!
Good app

The app is really useful and makes car lines go much quicker. However, there are some things on the app that I would change. I would have the numbers you were typing in get smaller instead of the keyboard moving down because if you are typing quickly, you click the wrong buttons. I would also switch the red circle to be the delete number button and the back arrow to be the backspace button.
Has potential to be great

When this app is working, it is very helpful. it would also be helpful if the car Marshall could check students off one at a time as students got in the cars. I often find I cannot dismiss the list because I am waiting on one or two students but then my next group of students is heading out and I don’t have them on my screen.
Major refresh.
Speed and stability improvements.
