How Does Life360 Work?
The Life360 app is designed to help families and friends stay connected and coordinated. It can be used to see loved ones’ locations, receive notifications when they arrive at and/or leave designated Places, get alerted if they need help, and even help find them if they get lost. With features like these, it’s no wonder that Life360 has become one of the most popular family location-sharing apps available.
The app works by allowing users to create a “Circle” of family and/or friends. This Circle can include anyone in your life that you want to stay connected to – whether that’s your spouse, your kids, your parents, your friends, or anyone you want to share your location with.
Life360 Features
Location Sharing
Life360’s location-sharing feature enables friends and family members to easily share their real-time location and movements with one another, allowing them to stay informed of each other’s whereabouts no matter where they go.
Driving Safety and Crash Detection
Using Life360 crash detection, your Circle can be notified when you’ve been in an accident. Your location will be shared with your Circle members and emergency contacts if help is needed or you do not respond. With Driving Summaries, you will also be able to see how your family is doing behind the wheel. Select premium plan members can also benefit from emergency dispatch and individual driving summaries.
Digital Safety
Life360 scans the dark web for your personal information to keep your identity safe through data breach alerts. We’ll notify you if any suspicious activity is detected, so you’re always in the loop. Select premium plan members can also benefit from identity theft protection and credit monitoring.
