Ratings and reviews

The concept is very good, but this app only works when open (and the screen is turned on). It otherwise only records the location every half an hour or so, not constantly, so it's impossible to record what you're exploring. It's not practical to keep your phone's screen turned on all the time, so it effectively doesn't work. Good for checking on your friends, that's all.

worked great until the recently. It all of a sudden stopped showing me the recent locations of my friends, and instead would only show me their locations with the time stamp of 2 days ago and wouldn't refresh. Talked with another friend, and she said it was doing the same thing on hers. So, I decided to delete the app in hopes it would do a reset, but now when I try to login it keeps saying that there is an error and wouldn't let me login

Last update ruined the app tbh. I moved to a different country last year so I got this app as another way of keeping in touch with my partner and friends. This last update makes it way more inconvenient to check ur friends' location. There's literally no reason for me to open the app to check my location i only use it to check on my friends and family. Bring back the friends hotbar at the bottom of the screen🫡
