I don't think you need an app. My I phone has a find my friends item. It
only works if everyone else and yourself have locations features on.

I don't see the point unless you have a person prone to wander who always
has their phone with them.

Can be handy to check where they are when you want to go and visit.

I've just been invited by a younger family member to join their Life360
Circle. I have responded by declining citing security worries.

The concept seems to be that you can download their app and see where all
the family members are at any given time.

To save battery, it uses a mix of GPS and cell positioning, if I
understand correctly. 2 family members use non-smart phones, and not sure
it would work with them.

Reviews look fairly negative, but many seem to be from those accused of
cheating by spouses.

There seems little info on what data is collected and whether it is sold
on.

After my "No thanks", he has backed away from persuasion, but I wondered
whether anyone here has tried or uses this app.
