Get a 360 degree view of your family's safety with Familo GPS Locator

You choose when and for how long you want to share your live location with your family. To be sure your kids are safe, Familo will send you automatic notifications when kids arrive at and leave their daily places

Every kid in your family circle can use the panic button, which will send their current location to parents so that help can be offered quickly.

The check-in feature in Familo allows you to share your live location with your family. Moreover, with the built-in chat, you will have the opportunity to communicate and securely share images with your family members.

To function properly the Familo also needs access to:
- Microphone to send voice messages and communicate with your family
- Background refresh to update your location even when the app is not open
- Mobile data to send messages, photos, and your location to family members

Familo Family Locator has been exclusively designed for parental and family monitoring. We welcome your ideas for improvement. Simply use the “Send Feedback” button in the app menu or send us an Email: support@familo.net

This is the best app out of 3 others I tried so far. Very easy to use, no unnecessary notifications or something. Sometimes updates are slow, but I guess it depends on your phone, how often it allows the app to check your location and use your data. Once app had a glitch, showing that my child is miles away, outside the city. I got worried, called the school, they said that all children are in school and no one is on trip. After 1/2h location went back to normal. Overall it's great app and the best I used so far.

Difficult to use. Misleading advert, you can't simply just search for someone they need to accept access which failed to work. Requesting changing of battery settings. Not straight forward, could not understand how to actually use it. It's not even worth 99p, wouldn't even use it if it was free. Don't waste your time or money!

Disgusting! Rubbish app, there are much better free ones. And what's worse, I have been trying to cancel the subscription for this app for months!! Yet they are still taking my money. They must owe me several hundred pounds by now. DON'T SUBSCRIBE. Oh, and the support email doesn't work, I've emailed countless times.
