It works. Plenty of phone location trackers have come and gone. Life360 has stuck around. Perfect for cross-ecosystem tracking (Android/iOS). Light on battery use. Provides free location tracking for multiple users and even 3 free geofence location alert locations (i.e. you get alerts when "Grandma has left home" for example). Overall I am satisfied.
Paid version includes as many alert location spots as you want, but honestly the 3 that are free are enough. No limits on the # of times the alerts run. One pro compared to using Google Maps location tracking is Life360 shows their last known location and 48 hour location history for free. Google only shows "current" location (to other users).
Go into settings and disable some of the data tracking if you want. They were caught selling anonymized data a few years ago but just use a 2nd email address or something. Overall I've been satisfied for years.
One thing I dislike between Life360 vs Google Maps is the iOS alerts. Apple will now and then show a pop-up saying "Life360 is tracking you, are you sure you want to continue this?" and of course Granny has a habit of disabling it. Then you gotta go to her phone and manually re-enable that. Couple times a year that happens: pain in the butt when they live far from you. Google has never done that.

Was a loyal customer until they 86ed the web login. IMHO, this company is either being stripped down to sell or they were already sold and are being gutted. Find another app to do this. Life360 is probably not long for this world.
Free version gives you only a day or two of location history.
Paid version gives you only 30 days of location history.
Would be nice to have full location history if paying premium.
Would be nice to have the web login still. Had been a happy customer until this happened.
