How it works: Location Tracking

Freedom to let go... a little.

Location updates every 15 minutes, visible from your SafetyMode Plus dashboard. No separate app. No constant checking. Just quiet reassurance that everything is fine.

Why we built it:

1 in 2

parents track their child's location using a phone or similar device (C.S. Mott Children's Hospital National Poll, University of Michigan, 2026). Rather than asking you to juggle a separate app for that, we've built it directly into SafetyMode

Less is more

1 in 4 parents who track their child's location say it sometimes makes them more anxious rather than reassured, evidence that lighter-touch check-ins can work better than constant tracking.

Better for parents

68% of parents who track their child's location do so for their own peace of mind

How it works:

Location updates every 15 minutes

See exactly where your child is on a map, updated automatically. No need to call or text to check in.

Visible from your SafetyMode dashboard

Check in alongside your other parental controls - everything in one place, no separate app needed.

Designed to build trust

The 15-minute interval is intentional; enough to reassure you, not so frequent it feels like tracking their every step. Supervision, not surveillance.
