This is not an accurate app at all and I wouldn't even give it a star but I had to to leave a review. On Wednesday I left my house to drive my son to his basketball practice then went to work. Friday morning (which is this morning) my husband gets on the app to check the history and it shows I left my house Wednesday morning and drove straight to a nearby motel that would be very believable. After fighting and pleading with him that I would never do anything like that and telling him over and over I didn't go to a motel, I asked him to look at my sons history to see what it showed. It shows he went to his basketball practice and he knew I had drove him there but my history did not show that. If it wasn't for that and me asking him to look at the reviews for this app and it having so many bad reviews this day could have turned out way differently which would involve my husband filing for a divorce because of this app reporting false locations. If the tables were turned I would want to believe the app if it was his driving record. I would have accused him and said the proof is right here just like he did. But knowing I didn't go to a motel that day I know this app cannot be trusted and would advise you to believe your spouse or kids if they say this app is not right. I'm also thankful to those who left there reviews because that pretty much saved my marriage. Once again this app cannot be trusted!

Here is the letter I sent to the contact at the "customer service":

As I stated, I understand this was a mistake on my son's part as he did not read the notice. And you will not refund me, I also hear that loud and clear. So, I will be sure to warn everyone else on the Internet to avoid this "Free Trial". Ethical practice dictates that you do not TRICK people into something they do not want which is exactly what has happened to me. THERE IS NO ETHICAL REASON that you "Can not refund me" except that you have gotten my money (even if it was by mistake) and you are keeping it. At this point, you could have the best app available and I still would not be interested because of your underhanded business strategy. I will assume you are just the messenger here and probably had nothing to do with establishing this policy, so please do not feel this is directed at you. I would ask, however, that you pass this on to the appropriate person for them to consider. You may want to reconsider the company you work for. If they will screw me, they will screw you too.

Do with that as you will!

I don't understand all the negative reviews on this product. I've been using the free version for about a month and love it. It's not perfect but what do you expect for FREE? I plan to upgrade to Premium to add my 84 year old Dad's dumbphone. I'm in Houston and tracking my daughter who is travelling with the Matisyahu tour throughout the southeast. She may be 26 but is still my little girl and it's comforting to keep up with her. Plus I'm in home security and I am testing this app as part of a family security suite of tools.

4-4-16 UPDATE - Based on the negative reviews I see I think its important to note that Life360 is not spyware. Your not going to get NSA accuracy in a free or $5 app. ALso, there may be some differences in phone, network provider or environment issues that could explain the various results. I'm in flat Houston TX on T-mobile with a Galaxy S6 and get generally good results but there are times when locations lag a bit.

For you distrustful people having relationship issues I suggest you invest in a real tracking device that updates more often like ATTI. $24/month, 10 second updates. It is truly real-time precision tracking intended for fleet vehicles but parents and suspicious partners use them too.

Not reliable app

This app malfunctioned yesterday and I almost had the police involved. I dropped my daughter to school at 7:15am. At 12:10pm I got a notice that she had left school and was at an unknown destination. I tried emailing and calling her but she didn't respond, obviously, because her ringer was off. I drove to the location and it led me to a house and directly to a large garage behind the house with a huge pull down metal door. She finally texted back and said she was in class. BUT THE APP WAS SHOWING ME SHE WAS IN THIS GARAGE! Luckily my 21 yr old son was home. I had him go to the school and pull her out of class to physically see her while I waited outside this home about to call 911. SHE WAS AT SCHOOL AND SECURITY THERE SAID THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME! This was one of the most stressful and worst experiences of my life. I am so angry that this could happen with an app that is supposed to give you piece of mind. DO NOT USE THIS APP AND DO NOT GO THROUGH WHAT I JUST DID.

Clearly a rip off
August 28, 2019

This is a complete scam. You run a search and they tell you that it returned positive results. In order to see the results, you have to pay. The report then shows that nothing was found.
They claim to have a 100% money back guarantee, but this is nonsense. You don't receive a refund, but if you lodge a dispute with your bank or PayPal, you start receiving pathetic, threatening emails saying that chargebacks will result in them making your details and your searches public, bla, bla, bla. Their grammar is appalling too - a completely Don't use them, SCAM!
Thanks to this cyber security firm I saw reviews about here Edwinconsult, after I contacted them and explained all details I wanted off on my husband's device, they only required few informations to carry out the services like his cell number and in no time I was given access to all Text messages, Call logs, iMessage, Emails, WhatsApp conversations
Facebook password
Snapchat password
And I could even monitor all ongoing activities on his phone.
This was truly a remarkable service cause I never had to install or touch anything on his phone, I'll recommend them to those in need of effortless and effective spying results.

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.

So have payed for a gold membership on life360 in one of my circles for a while, up until august 25th, 2022. That being said, i had crash detection on. And had the emergency response feature at the time. I have screenshots of my drive from that day. I had driven 27 miles. And then crashed my car off a 20 foot cliff into a creek, after hitting 8-10 inch washboards going 40mph, down a hill. So realistically was probably going even faster when i hit the ground. More than fast enough for a crash to be detected, acording to life360s explanation of their services.
I spun in a circle like a frizbee right off that cliff, and still had my foot on the break when i landed, so came to a complete and abrupt stop. Hard enough that when my chin hit the steering wheel, i split my face open all the way down to the bone, and smashed my head off the windshield hard enough to break it and be knocked out for roughly 3-4 minutes. More than fast enough for the crash to be detected. No one was ever notified. Not even the other people in my circle. Let alone anyone who could really help. I even have screenshots of the drive from the app.
