Ratings and reviews

What this app is trying to do is really cool, and I would love it, if it was reliable. Sometimes it works great, other times it fails to update location for days. I hope it will eventually work all the time, but for now, a good temporary bandaid would be a button that pings one of my contacts manually. You could put a time limit on it if server load is an issue, but this would ensure you can always get the current location. Being completely at the mercy of location auto-updating is frustrating.

app has stopped working. says I'm offline, doesn't update location. tried to update profile pic and it says it cant/it already did. tried closing and reopened and didn't help. really wanted this to work, but it hasn't after the first couple of days.

I love the limited sharing of this app. I would like it to work better across Android and IOS
