Find my kids: Location Tracker

Find my kids: Location Tracker is a family GPS tracker and parental control app that helps parents monitor their children's whereabouts and get peace of mind about daily movements. The app connects to a child’s GPS watch or a companion tracker installed on the child’s phone to show real-time location, day-long location history and arrival/departure notifications for custom places like school. Additional tools include a Listen In feature, a loud signal to find a misplaced device, remote battery status checks and a simple family chat. The service requires the child’s consent and uses GPS-based location rather than mobile phone number tracking.
