Pay & Get Code

Complete the one-time payment and receive your unique 6-character code (e.g., ABC123)

Share With Volunteers

Spread the word using any method:

  • Text friends and family: "Download FindSquad FREE and enter ABC123"
  • Post on social media (Facebook, Nextdoor, Instagram)
  • Put on flyers around the neighborhood
  • Share in community groups

Coordinate in Real-Time

As volunteers join, you'll see them on the map:

  • View all volunteer locations in real-time (5-15m accuracy, may be degraded with poor GPS or GLONASS signal)
  • Chat with your team
  • See coverage heatmap to identify unsearched areas
  • When found, tap "FOUND" to end the search for everyone
