Introducing: Driving by Life360

Life360 introduces it’s most exciting, new feature: Driving

Driving is now available for Life360 Circle members. This new feature allows members to view detailed information about how their friends and family behave while driving.

Each drive gives a detailed view including:

  • Top Speed
    Know how fast your loved ones are driving
  • Detailed Drive Routes
    View our most accurate routes
  • Dangerous Driving Events
    Did the driver use their phone or brake too hard? See the number of unsafe events

To view a drive, go into a Circle member’s profile and click on a Drive, like the picture below. The information provided will show start and stop time and locations, the top speed reached during the drive, and if any Unsafe Driving Events occurred during the drive.

Unsafe driving events include phone usage (like texting, or picking up your phone while the drive is happening), rapid acceleration, and hard braking.
