child GPS tracking

A child GPS tracker app with useful context

Guardian uses the connected child phone as the source of family location information. The Family Map shows the location the phone has been able to report rather than pretending the device is broadcasting a flawless continuous position.

A calmer way to stay informed

Home and School alerts can cover familiar journey milestones, while battery level and last-update information give parents extra context when the map looks older than expected or an alert appears late.

A child GPS tracker works best when families understand the phone conditions behind it. Location permissions, connectivity, background activity, buildings and battery restrictions can all influence accuracy and update timing.

Guardian is intended to reduce unnecessary checking, not replace direct communication or prove a child’s exact physical position. It is not an emergency service.

Guardian is not an emergency service. Location and notifications can be affected by GPS, connectivity, permissions, battery settings and operating-system restrictions.
