Know they got there. Even with no signal.

Live location, SOS and crash detection for your family. Download the maps first and it keeps working where the signal drops — the tunnel on the school run, the campsite, the trip abroad with roaming off.

Get TribeSentry How we treat your data

iPhone · 11 languages · SOS and crash detection are free

Works offline

Download your maps ahead of time and TribeSentry keeps going with no reception at all — underground, out at the campsite, or abroad with roaming off.

Crash detection, free

If your phone detects what looks like a car crash, your family is alerted automatically with your location. Not a paid tier. Not an add-on.

We don't sell location

Your location history is deleted automatically after seven days, and it is never sold to anyone. That is the whole business model.

What's in it

Everything you'd expect from a family locator, plus the things that only matter once you're actually out of range.

Live map

Everyone in the family, in real time, on one map — with who's moving and who's stopped.

Places

Get an alert when someone arrives at or leaves home, school, or work.

Meeting point

Drop a pin the whole family can navigate to. Useful precisely when the phones are busy.

SOS that works offline

One tap alerts everyone, with exactly where you are. With no signal at all it falls back to a text message — texts get through on a signal too weak for data.

Battery saver

Under 20% we report less often so the phone keeps sharing for longer. A phone that dies stops sharing altogether, which helps nobody.

Speed alerts, per person

A limit for the new driver and none for you. Set individually, not one number for the whole family.

History playback

Replay the route someone actually took, rather than guessing from a single pin.

Who checked on you

Every time somebody opens your location, you see it. The watching goes both ways, which is the difference between an agreement and a tracking device.

If they didn't arrive

Learns when someone usually gets home, and says something when they haven't. Built from arrival times, never from where you've been.

Everyone, including grandparents

Invite with a code or a WhatsApp link, and approve each person with one tap.

Your location isn't the product

Location sharing only works if you trust where the data goes. So here is exactly where it goes.

The short version:
  • We don't sell your location data. Not aggregated, not anonymised, not to anyone.
  • History is deleted after 7 days, automatically, by a scheduled job — not on request.
  • Sharing is yours to switch off at any moment, and your family is told it's off rather than shown a stale pin.
  • Delete your account from inside the app, and the location, history, and family membership go with it.

The full detail — every field collected, every processor, and your rights under GDPR and CCPA — is in the privacy policy.

How we differ from Life360

Pricing

The safety features are the free ones. We charge for history depth, because that's what actually costs us money to store.
