AT&T Secure Family Customer Insights

1. Oh and the service that it goes with is horrible too.But as usual I'm stuck in a contract, but I wont be anymore when this one runs out!Family Maps was more accurate and MUCH better, this app seems to take a lot longer to locate my child and the location is nowhere near accurate.

2. There are no longer SETTINGS to not allow automatic locates when opening the app, the content filter, time limits, and location alert panes will not go away from the home page, and, most frustrating is the "internet pause" button is so big and I cannot get rid of it.

3. I had to pair her phone daily to get it to work ... then when she left the house, the other features would not work.

4. It also doesn't keep a log each time I check in like the older version.I have used AT&T family map for years.

5. It takes multiple attempts to track a location, each time gives me a completely different address and at times up to several blocks difference.

6. The locations are inaccurate and half the time it's begin and will show me that the phone is somewhere that they were at hours ago are no longer at.

7. I selected the app because I wanted to be able to turn off her phone during specific times.I can't even get it to work now.

8. They charge an obscene amount of money for sketchy service complete with no signal, dropped calls, and now apps that don't work.

9. I further learned there is a "bypass" link that shows up on my child's phone where the set restrictions can be overridden.

10. I'm not sure what she was doing, she said she only turned off notifications for the app, but once she left the house, the only feature that worked was location.

11. The INSTANT I updated to AT&T Secure Family I have not been able to use it.
