Family Locator Customer Insights

1. People don't like to be ripped of, you know? The only contact for support is a Gmail address... they make apps and they cannot (or will not) get themselves a proper email address? Apparently based in India.My youngest son traveled with his best friend to NY! Naturally, this momma worried about a trip across the entire US! But I came across this app, told my son about it.

2. App deleted.£15 to get rid of ads?!? SERIOUSLY??? I've purchased fantastic apps that do A LOT more than this one and they didn't cost more than £5 top! I just cannot understand why some people choose to be great and not be successful.

3. It made him feel better & of course me! I highly recommend it, all you do is tap on it, it updates immediately, no texting, calling.The locator part works well, but the ad notifications to my phone multiple times a day are obnoxious.

4. Would be great if comes with option of background tracking even when you exited the app.Google list this as one ofvthe Top 8 free apps.

5. That's a joke! To be polite, I'd suggest that it is also very misleading - no reference to cost when you find and download the app, then continue to initialise and get right through to the end to be informed that it's 69p for a trial period and then £30+ per month.

6. There are many, many ads which is understandable but it costs £22.49 to go ad free which is premium.The ads cover up the screen and they appear randomly in your Notifications feed.

7. Family members with their GPS on didn't have an updated location for 6 days! What's the use of an app that doesn't update itself.

8. We've now switched to the Connected app which appears to be much better.Horrible horrible locator app! I rarely take the time to write reviews, but I had to with this one to let it be known not to waste your time with this app.

9. Double thumbs down to the developers, smh.My friend and I installed this app on our phones yesterday so I could track her on a long trip she was taking.

10. Only problem I can see with this app is there is a constant notification on the top of your phone telling you your location is being shared.

11. You cannot refresh app either.User friendly, even easy for children/elderly to understand and use.
