Sanka — Family Locator, GPS Phone Tracker & Emergency SOS

Know where your family is, and be there the moment they need you. Sanka is a family locator and GPS phone tracker that combines real-time location sharing with the safety features that matter in a real emergency — automatic crash detection, one-press SOS, and built-in voice & video calling so you can reach your loved ones instantly, all in one app.

The name comes from the Tagalog phrase "'san ka?" — "where are you?" — the question every family asks. Sanka answers it.

REAL-TIME FAMILY LOCATOR
See your family, friends, and trusted circle on a live map with accurate GPS location sharing. You have full control over who can see your location and when. Sharing is always mutual and opt-in. No hidden tracking, ever.

AUTOMATIC CRASH DETECTION
Sanka detects sudden G-force impacts, like a car crash. If the person doesn't cancel within 30 seconds, Sanka alerts their emergency contacts with their precise location and streams live GPS for a full hour so help can find them fast. Most family locator apps charge extra for this — or don't have it at all.

ONE-PRESS SOS
In an emergency, trigger an instant SOS alert that sends your live GPS coordinates to everyone in your circle — and it overrides silent mode on their phones, so the alert gets through.

TALK, DON'T JUST TRACK
A dot on a map isn't enough in an emergency. Sanka includes group chat, direct messaging, and crystal-clear voice & video calls built in. See where they are and talk to them — without switching apps. Share photos and files, with read receipts so you know your message got through.

SCHEDULED MESSAGES
Schedule messages to send at a specific time — perfect for reminders, daily check-ins, or birthday greetings.

GUARDIAN MODE
Parents can link their account to a child's account to monitor safety and stay informed.

BUILT FOR EVERY GENERATION
From teens getting home from school to aging parents living independently, Sanka keeps the whole family connected — for parents, couples, and caregivers checking in on elderly loved ones.

FIND YOUR PHONE, FIND YOUR PEOPLE
Misplaced a device? Locate any phone in your circle on the live map.

FREE TO USE — NO PAYWALL SURPRISE
Sanka is free for up to 4 followed contacts, with full safety features included. No "pay before you can even try it." Upgrade to Sankayo for expanded circles and premium features.

PRIVACY & SECURITY
Built by a named, real founder — not an anonymous publisher. Your data is encrypted in transit. Location sharing always requires consent and can be turned off at any time. Your family's location data is not for sale.

Download Sanka — the family locator that doesn't just show you where they are. It helps you reach them.

SANKA — Stay connected. Stay safe.
