The features other apps charge for are free here, and some you won't find anywhere else.
See everyone at once, with battery, and whether they're walking, cycling or driving.
Know when people get home, to school or to work, and get told if someone hasn't arrived by a set time.
Hold SOS for 2 seconds and your circle sees your exact spot. Crash detection is free.
One tap asks your circle for a lift with your location. Everyone sees who's coming.
A circle for friends on a night out or at a festival that deletes itself when it's over.
Show only your rough area for a few hours, pause any time, and see who's checked on you.
Real screens from the app, with a demo family.
Some family locator apps keep their best safety features behind a subscription. We don't.

It's the name of our own family group chat: the family, plus the partners, friends and everyone else who's family really. We built the app we wanted for them, and made it free for everyone else too.
