where this family is a family safety system that uses the latest technology to locate children in real time through mobile and theirs (and with maximum precision). It also allows you to configure home and school addresses, so that parents receive a mobile notification when their children arrive or leave any of the places they travel to.
I imagine that it is not only about security, but also about tranquility, for all those families in which the father and mother work away from home with very long hours and they need to know about the children. Because we already know that kids sometimes do not answer the phone because they have not heard it, and this happens more and more in young kids (eight / nine years old). It has not happened to me personally, but I do have a close reference of distressed parents for not knowing where the child was, and on more than one occasion I had to go look for him at his house, or go to his class of cole to see if there was arrived.
I have to tell you that from 'La Puerta del Cole' they give the Premium version of whereEsta Family to their registered users, check the information on their website.
The features of this application that was previously called kinLocate, include location of the child with just a touch on the mobile screen, knowing in real time if they are at home, at school (or where they are supposed to be), alerts - even in cases where children need help or are in danger - notifications when they need to be picked up, locate the mobile in case of loss, ...
Integrates the best GPS tracking technology and includes panic button. WhereThis Family is available for Android and iPhone, it has a free version and another with Premium functionality at a cost of $ 0.99 per family.
And if with young children it brings peace and security, with teenagers it can become a tool for them to gain greater autonomy, and (of course) greater responsibility. Although it seems that respect for privacy is taken into account, because until the invitation to join the family group is accepted, none of its members can be located.
I do not doubt that it can be a good solution in many cases, although I also don't want to admit that this type of applications can supply direct control, or supervision by parents, which unfortunately in many cases can not happen. And sometimes I wonder what kind of society is this in which children are deprived of their parents since they are very young? I know that we can understand as natural that children over eight years of age go to school alone, stay with their friends, etc., but within that naturalness a father or mother with some availability should also be included, just in case.
If you are interested, you have more information on Google Play, or Apple iTunes, and of course in La Puerta del Cole.
