## What is LocFam?

Stay connected with your family, wherever they are.

Whether your child is commuting to school, your family is traveling, or you simply want extra peace of mind, this GPS-powered family location app helps you stay informed in real time.

Real-Time Family Location
Create a private family circle and invite members with a secure 6-digit code. Once they join and grant permission, you can view their real-time location on a dedicated private map.

Place Alerts
Add important places such as home, school, or work for selected family members. When they arrive at or leave a saved place, you can receive timely notifications.

Emergency SOS
In an emergency, one tap sends an instant SOS alert to circle members, including the sender’s updated real-time location.

Location History
View members’ location history to better understand daily routes, check past movements, or help find a lost device.

Privacy First
All members must install the app voluntarily and grant location permission before sharing begins. Location services require prior consent from the person being located.
