This ISNT okay
March 16, 2020

You. As a adult of one kid or more. Have been their age. Let them have their fun. Let them learn through experiences how do you think it's makes them feel. How do you expect them to talk to you bout things if your watching their every move. This doesn't create trust or boundaries but instead your creating children how to be sneaky and how to break the rules even more. Build trust with your kids not break it apart.

Bad
March 15, 2020

Glitchy and too many flaws. This app violates all sense of privacy for young people and gives parents a good like sense of power over there children, not allowing trust to be earned.

It never works!

Do they even use GPS?! No way. The app is terrible and never updates correctly. It also gives different information on each of our families phones.

Kids on another App are revolting life 360 and think if they give a 1 star review that it will be removed as an App. Just to give some info on what is going on.

Life360 sells your location data to pretty much whoever wants it
This includes car insurance companies that can charge you more for unsafe driving

Don't get it
March 14, 2020

It will create more problems. Honestly don't get it. Don't do it. It will make your kids rebellious and resent you.

Hate the idea
March 12, 2020

I think this is a horrible app because now parents think it's a good idea to force their kids to get it and spy on them. Build trust with your kids, this app invades your privacy too much and I'm sure having it would feel like you are being watched 24/7 which you basically are. It tracks your location at all times, how much time you're there and keeps it in your history so other (usually parents) can see everything you do.

Late to update
March 12, 2020

My family has it and it does not work my brothers have it and his says were in random places, it's very late we were at a baseball tournament and it said we were at the house. Like I said it's very late to update the places we are in. Once my mom was driving the speed limit at it said she was driving 83 mph. The crash alert did not work when my mom got in a crash it did not tell us about it. A very bad app!

Life360 is designed for families to be able to know where each other are at all times. While this seems ideal, it is not. It tears down the idea of people trusting one another, in favor of technology. The software itself is not that much to brag on: the map locations are typically inaccurate and, on the driver portion, the statistics are consistently incorrect. There are also many loopholes and ways around the system. Returning to the moral issues, however, families shouldn't have to use technology for these purposes. Life360 is one primary reason why the concept of trust is less and less prevalent as time goes on.

My son was in two wrecks. One was a head on collision and it never notified me either time.
The location service part of it is pretty accurate.

Three accidents, all meeting their "limited criteria" for detection and it DID NOT WORK! I have asked them repeatedly to fix it and they blow me off. No way to contact a real customer service department... just a burred link in the FAQs to "contact us". When they do respond they just give out reasons and limitations. I paid for an app that states it has crash detection. I expected crash detection! I think it's time to report them for false advertising.
