MamaBear Family Safety App Reviews

Must be reset constantly to find my daughter. Absolutely useless now.

I had high hopes. My teenage daughter was onboard, had it on her phone. Ive used everyday for a month. Sadly it doesnt work enough of the time to make it a reliable source of any relevant information. Map gets stuck on a location for hours and hours. Arrival and departure information is neat but again doesnt function enough for me to have confidence.

I dont use the social media login. I love this app for keeping up with my teenager. She is always on the move with friends. This app lets you set a speed limit so I know if her friends are driving too fast. It lets you set safe places so you know when your child leaves a specified place. Its wonderful at showing precisely where she is at any time. Even if not running in the background on my childs phone it seems to work very well. Over all I love this as a tracking app.

The idea is great but its not working correctly. It sends messages that my daughter has left home and shes sitting next to me in the house. I like the fact that I know when she arrives at her destination but I dont receive the message at all or its hours later. Not sure if its worth the trouble.

This app definitely helps me keep tabs on my son. I use it mainly for the map, I dont use any other features currently. Location is sometimes weird, notifying me that he left the house and hes sitting right next to me, but this usually corrects itself with another notification a few minutes later saying he came back home. Beyond that, it gives me a general location, my only wish is that it showed the map live, so I could see him moving as he rides down to the convenience store for Cheetos. Thanks for helping me keep my kid safe!

I really liked this app! I could easily keep tabs on my child. It told me when she left our neighborhood on the bus and arrived at school! It stopped working at the end of the year though! Its only worked twice since then! I reinstalled it and reloaded it but nothing works now. Very disappointed.

We are able to do the monitoring we want as needed. I hope they will continue to add new apps to the monitoring. That is my only criticism

When our family first started using this app, it worked fine. Having a new driver, the notifications for speed and arrival were nice. However, on a recent trip with my parents, it told me my daughter was in Ft. Wayne the whole weekend they were actually in NC. Woke up this morning to 12 notifications that she arrived home. Thanks. But not. Deleting.

This is too much. Its over bearing and may give false information about how fast you are going. It is truly a despicable app that never should have been invented. But if you wanna be a parole officer, then your on the right track. It notifies your every move and speed and whatever else you want. Hope you are sane enough to not get this app.

My parents are constantly in my business now, I have no privacy whatsoever. Im so done.

I know what my kids are doing on social media. I have a pretty good idea on where they are. And they love the fact that I know where they are. They know I only use it for their safety. And they feel safe. I love mama bear!!!!!!

It is a great way to communicate and see where your family is. Only problem I have is that sometimes the map is way off so you cant find each other.

Does everything it says it does. Im surprised they have free version. Kudos to the developers. I hope many people purchase your app for making it free to some.

Been a fan of MamaBear for years. Great when I had the Free version... A couple of days after Upgrading (paid version) for the app to get rid of ads, and to better track social media accounts, the location check-ins vs. map locations stopped working correctly. Hopefully this gets fixed. Nothing like being your told your kiddo is somewhere they are not supposed to be. Then they check in, but the map shows them far from that location.

I got the free version, which worked flawlessly. I decided to purchase the subscription that provides the history of points and locations. Within days of my purchase my sons locations would rarely refresh. We checked the app and location services and insured that it was turned on. The location would refresh once a day at the most. I submitted my logs with a request for assistance and after a week with no response I resubmitted the logs with another request for help. To date I have not received a response and the locations are still not refreshing. The free version worked perfectly and I should have left well enough alone. I would highly recommend not wasting your money on the subscription as the free version works better and provides the same developer support. None.

This app is stupid if our parents dont trust us dont buy us phones easy as that right?

Great tool to monitor my girls. Im a single mom who relies on after school care and transportation. Its a great app to make sure they are where they are supposed to be. I love the check in feature. I agree though with the one review. Its a little glitchy. I had the same problem in the middle of the night with it showing having left home and my daughter was sound asleep in bed. And to the (I agree with the one reviewer) MORON saying its a stalker app. Its a shame we have to track our kids now a days but it is a necessary evil. Its not my children I worry about as much as the other folks out there that can hurt my children. I am not naive though either they are going to get in trouble from time to time. I would just like to be able to keep them away from some of it. Hopefully monitoring texts on iOS comes soon too

Works great. Helps keep up with kids. A must in todays world. The fact that negative reviews all come from kids is a huge endorsement.

Not sure! I love the app but I have a 16 year old and the map and time is off and I have called frantic like whats going on and she was not where it said? Like the timing is off too!!! WTH FIX THIS ! I seem to not be the only person with this issue??

Just started using the app So far a like it
