★★★★★ "Accurate???. I’ve had this app for over a year now, even had the platinum for the first year but as far as tracking goes, it’s not very accurate. Sometimes a mile off and sometimes several miles off. What’s the deal? The satellite seems to be off track …" - ECRIDER1

Overtaken by ads
Good location app, but it has gotten overwhelmed by ads that are almost impossible to exit from. A good free version, ruined.
Pet guardian emergency alert
Over priced . Pet guardian emergency alert has more for way less and can do more.
scam
shares your location to scammers so they can steal and cheat
Can’t even sign up!
I can’t say if this is good app or not because I got stuck at just the join page! Sends me code, I enter it and it says it’s not correct.Doesn’t matter if I enter manually or copy from phone. Then I try to contact customer service and fill out the form, but I can’t send it to them because it’s only for after you have an account. So it won’t accept my phone number because it’s not connected to an active account. So I can’t send the help form. I was hoping this would be better than Life360 but so far it’s highly frustrating.
Too many pop ups
Whenever I open the app, ads swarm my screen. It’s so slow and it takes forever to take it off my screen. I use this apps for emergencies and the pop ups are frustrating. They’re annoying and get in the way

Not a good app
Had 2 days for my 12 yr old and I and messages (6 now) from porn links that show inappropriate pics in the message area. Even worse- can’t delete them or block the sender. Do not use this for kids!!
SMH🙄🙄🙄
tried this app & it said "net-work error" but theres not a thing wrong with my connections at all 🙄🙄🙄
Doesn’t work consistently
Some days this app works and some days it refuses to work
Unable to login
Not working since the last update
Broken- no longer tracks
Longtime premium user- app used to work amazing until ios26. Everything is updated and it is a total loss. Refuses to track anyone now.
App is not updating location
The app does not seem to be updating the location, it just spins and spins, and nothing happens. This is after the latest update.
not accurate.
this app is no better than life360. me and my mom kept getting notifications when it said my brother had “arrived at home,” even though he’s been home for hours. then it would say my mom or brother had arrived at a place when it was incorrect. please do not download this app, as it is very incorrect and inaccurate.
Terrible
Cancele la suscripción hace 10 meses y aún sigue cobrando, ya dejen de hacerlo y regresen mi dinero
Stop asking me to turn notifications on
I’ve had this app for over a year and it’s worked great to location share between my iPhone and my husbands android, however, I recently updated to a newer phone and since re-installing this app it asks me to turn on notifications every time I open it, sometimes multiple times without even switching between apps. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it but it just keeps harassing me to the point I’m looking at other location trackers to replace it. Super disappointing
Do not add
Do not download. A email appeared that I didn’t enter. I was told that something must have gone wrong.
I have deleted the app

Not Showing Movement
I have the paid subscription and after the last update tracking movement is not working. I’ll pull up the app and it is only showing my children’s icon in the last place they were. No movement even though I know they driving down the interstate. PLEASE FIX TO SHOW REALTIME MOVEMENT AND LOCATION! I’M PAYING FOR THIS!
your app is what made my dad furious at me bro
1st, I did not purchase this app, 2nd I did not even get a subscription, and also why are they so expensive bro. 3rd, even if I download it I would still delete it.
Horribly Infuriating
The pop-ups in this app are relentless and annoying. There is no setting to turn them off. If you have to open this app constantly, you will be raging. If you only have to track another iPhone, I would recommend just using the Find My app that Apple already comes with.
The links don’t work
I downloaded the free trial. I added one contact from my directory sent them a link then I noticed I was unable to add any other contacts to the app. The one contact I did send the link to was unable to open it. It comes back with a message from Safari saying it’s a bad address. Since it’s a free trial that automatically converts to an annual subscription to the end of seven days I immediately went into my subscriptions and canceled it. Hard to believe that this thing could have 30 million users and they’re sending out broken links.

Worst app ever!
Your at home and it’s tell me I’m across the street and in someones backyard. Or it tell you that you stopped at so on so house when you just went by it and didn’t stop. So how is that accurate. I was happy until I started seeing how inaccurate it is and that can’t tell someone just meet at my location because it’s not the right location. So I’m
Done paying for something that doesn’t work.

Why
I want only put their numbers whithout them download the app
I do not want to share my location!
Why don’t you have a way to stop asking me every 3 hours to change my location sharing settings????
If I don’t want it, stop asking!
This is so annoying…
I wanna see my child not the other way around. You keep asking over and over again and I want to stop it but there’s no option to do so! And I can’t turn this notification off! So freaking annoying!

It’s pretty bad
It doesn’t update our location even after we’ve been gone from a place for an hour already, which it should really update immediately. If that doesn’t even work, that defeats the purpose of this app
It does not work
Unable to add any friends. The invite messages will not send. Gathers my information and then nothing in the app works.
Simple and Accurate but PESKY
The app is simplistic and the location is accurate. There’s plenty of features if you pay for it but if you just want a simple location tracker it works. The history location isn’t that accurate but it’s better than nothing. You have to watch a long ad to view any kind of history though. However, the real reason for my rating, I choose not to allow motion and fitness as it doesn’t do anything for location accuracy except they get to sell your accurate driving data analytics to insurance companies. Everything you do in the app they will harass you to enable it. Open the app, ask. Click on someone, ask. Click settings then back, ask. I can’t be bothered to be harassed over a permission that does absolutely nothing to benefit me and untimely screw you over in more ways than one. They will tell you it’s for driving history but that’s not worth the extra data they get from that because they put most of it behind a paywall anyway.
Better alternatives
It’s okay, but you have to pay for street view, satellite view, and whereabout history, all things that are free on Life360. I don’t think knowing where my family is has a price.
It was great at the start
It was great at the start but some random creepy person requested me to join there location
Bug fix
My partners location is accurate it tells me his WiFi is off don’t give me 100% real time were he’s at and takes his location is off fix it please
Accurate???
I’ve had this app for over a year now, even had the platinum for the first year but as far as tracking goes, it’s not very accurate. Sometimes a mile off and sometimes several miles off. What’s the deal? The satellite seems to be off track or something. The subscription price is too high for such inaccurate information. Glass I didn’t buy another year!
Places and Timing
This app is a pretty good alternative to Life360, but at times, it lags a significant amount. It is what I would call “good enough”, however. I am also frustrated that you can only mark one “place” to get alerts upon leaving and arriving, as well as being unable to make the radius for a place smaller (though I can let that one slide as maybe their software can’t pinpoint that precisely). I think the free app should get you two freebie Places and more than that would be behind the paywall. I’m planning to jump ship the instant I can get Life360, but if changes are made I’d be willing to keep using this app.
* NOT FREE *
The App Store stated that the app was completely free, but there was a hidden subscription after sign-up and it would cost you $80 per year instead of the completely free advertisement. Many apps do this and I think it is unacceptable.
Location doesn’t update
We used to love this app but recently it hasn’t been updating for days. Unfortunately it looks like it might be time to find a different app to use
Stopped working
My husband and mom’s location haven’t been updated in 3 days. I have turned my phone off and on. I un-instilled the app and reinstalled. Checked the settings. As well as theirs, and it’s still the same. This app worked so well but as of lately, it hasn’t worked at all. Quite frustrating.
