Find my Phone - Family Locator Reviews

by Clwilli86

So, I downloaded FindmyPhone and was navigating through the set up and was trying to figure out how it works. Been through many family trackers, so I wanted to make sure this was good. It was somewhat glitchy and upon flipping through it, I accidentally purchased it. I would like a refund considering I didn’t purchase it and now I can’t get my money back. I wanted to track my 4th grade child who was on a school trip 4 hours away and it wouldn’t locate him. I sent check in after check in and nothing. The SOS didn’t work and we’ve tried it before he went on the trip. Not worth it to download or even purchase. In which again, I did not intend to do.

At first I liked FindmyPhone but then I noticed the accuracy was off but they claim it getting a premium plan you would be able to get real time tracking this is a lie I purchased the lifetime one it doesn’t work at all it just says the family members aren’t responding everything you try to use the feature. I tried contacting support via email like the help section says they were no help at all basically told me google play or iTunes controls the purchases.... I’m very disappointed and I want my money back paid 15 dollars for nothing at all 😡😡😡😡

It doesn’t work. Keeps showing my husband currently being at places he left hours ago. I see him walking in the house and this useless app shows him in another State. It’s only gotten worse and worse. I’m deleting FindmyPhone . There are many much more reliable family tracking apps. I hope they fix whatever problems they have . I am done waiting for their fixes.
PS. Notice all the good reviews are years old. FindmyPhone is nothing like it USED to be. It’s garbage now.

This only works if your family puts the same app on their phone. Which means each one has to buy into FindmyPhone . Caution it is not a spy app. You can use your find my phone app on your phone for free if you all turn on the feature.
Wish this had a try for free before you have to buy. No refund either if you buy into this tearable app.

What’s the point of paying for an app when you can just use the one that’s built into your phone if you’re going to be sharing your location with a People do you want to locate anyway. The one that’s built into the phone is free and does the same thing this one does and you don’t have to pay for it in the wind is it already on your phone actually works. Or this one doesn’t don’t waste your money.

I don’t know if there is a bug or what. Attempted to real-time track nanny and it said it couldn’t locate her. It then asked me if I wanted to send a notification. I selected yes. It didn’t send anything. I attempted to real-time track my wife’s phone who was sitting right next to me. Same thing. Couldn’t locate. Send a message? Yes. Nada. It will update a users location on the map every 45 mins or so. This is not real-time tracking. You all need to fix this.

Your description is very deceiving it says you have a free version , and yet you don’t even offer a trial, or a way to find your free version if you do have one ?
It forces you to choose a paying option before you can go on. I’ll just give my money to people with integrity. I’m happy to pay for a product but for heaven sakes just don’t be sneaky about your marketing. It’s called bad character

Constantly stops working and does not accurately show locations. Sometimes it goes more than 24 hrs without updating and very frequently says a person is one place when they are another. Today as I write this a family member’s location has not been updated for 2 hrs and they are away out of town so I have no idea if they are safe or not using FindmyPhone. Not reliable at all!

by Poseidon03

It seems the accuracy is off majority of the time. Bought the in purchase to have all the features and it I’m the only one who can view history in my family circle. The other family members would have to pay. Notifications are late. And I’m not able to make the location spots smaller to a pin point location. Not able to recommend features in FindmyPhone because I can’t see the submit button under the box to write the recommendations. Would be a great app if they would let the family circle access what needs to be accessed without both parents paying. For the feature. I hate to say it but might go back to life 360. (Sighs).

I’m really disappointed with FindmyPhone.
I bought it because my daughter flew to France two weeks ago and I wanted to truck her ways. She came back last week and, according with FindmyPhone, she still in France.
I could not see her ways there, FindmyPhone took forever to update and still.
I will never recommend FindmyPhone to anyone.

FindmyPhone has an issue and can’t triangulate location or use GPS very accurately. My 73 year old mother constantly shows leaving her home at 2 and 3 am and it wanders around within a couple MF miles all while she is actually home sleeping. I purchased to keep up with my teenage driving son, my pilot husband so I could remember where he was each night, and my mother who never sits still and is always out and about (during the day). It has been a waste of money and doesn’t always locate. My son was home last night for an hour before it said he was “entering the safe zone home”. Don’t bother with this one.

So I got this for my daughter and it was great but I was running errand and I was by the airport. It kept sending me notifications about flights I didn’t have I logged off and now I can’t get back on. I was a little disappointed with FindmyPhone . The object is ok I wish it didn’t do that. Please turn my frown upside down!☹️🙃😫😫

When FindmyPhone works, it’s wonderful knowing that my kids are safe. When it works, it’s nice when the kids know where my husband and I are without texting us..especially when we’re driving and can’t answer them. I wish there were an update that could help FindmyPhone work more often. I just checked on my kids and it has been over 24 hours since FindmyPhone updated. Is there anyway to correct this without having the kids phones here with me?

by Makeupismyaddiction

It’s great because I can see where my son is. What’s not great is I don’t know how many times I’ve paid the fee for “lifetime” tracking, which is history and real-time tracking. I’m not sure what gets screwed up here but it’s annoying. And it’s like $15 each time. Lifetime usually means forever. Also know, there is an option for yearly as well. I’ll do some research and be looking for another tracking app.

App does a decent job of tracking. Has some delay even on a paid version. Delay sometimes take up to an hour to recalculate the position of the member.

by Missisdippi

Very nice to keep up with your family and not to have to worry when they don’t answer the phone

by Hendog2700

Tracks safe zones, so I know when someone is entering the house, and danger zones, when someone is entering or leaving a danger zone. I think it is a very generous 5 star, but still, it will come in handy in the future for me and all of you

by Faithfulwifenotsofaithfulhubby

It’s great but I hate invisible mode... and I hate that sometimes it doesn’t update for hours, or maybe that’s my partner using the invisible mode to be deceptive... but I love that you can see which direction they are and exactly how close they are to you

FindmyPhone is great for everything! It is great for summer especially. When kids are camp, parents can see on FindmyPhone to make sure, just because we are all paranoid that way😂 But seriously, FindmyPhone is great! I would recommend it to anyone! It is super easy to use and really helpful👍🏻 Great job!

FindmyPhone is amazing! I can see my whole family as they move from activity to activity. I have a sibling who travels for work, and I can see her all over the globe! I can keep tabs on my kiddos as they hang out with their friends or go to their after school activities. I can even see as they are driving down the street! An added bonus is the SOS button. My kiddos can use it if they need me to get to them quickly. I can’t say enough about FindmyPhone. I love it.

I’m happy to have stumbled upon FindmyPhone it does a lot to alleviate worries about my son’s whereabouts and gives me certainty that he has made his way to destinations safely.
