Perfect

Everything you need, much more affordable than life 360 and the best part is they don’t track telematics data and sell it to companies to jack up your insurance.

Best Location App!!

Love the UI, great pricing, and cherry on top is the end-to-end encryption. Whole family uses this, I recommend it to everyone, looking forward to the web version. 🏆

Disappointing

I wanted an alternative to the spam filled Life360 but turns out this isn’t it. Frequently shows phones as inactive despite all settings set to maximum location and battery use to allow better tracking. Tried turning sharing off and on again but now can’t even reactivate sharing. Confusing layout with personal space, group space, and not a simple means of managing own device settings. I now can’t even remove myself and readd myself to get it working.

I’m sure the paid tier would be better but the initial service doesn’t inspire me to commit so I can add all our families devices.

Thank you for honest and direct feedback 💪. I can agree that personal space makes things a bit confusing, but it is there as a feature to connect and track your own history and devices. I'll definitely work on improving the UI so it doesn't get in the way of group sharing, so I hope you can reconsider the app in the future. If you only used the free version, then location updates will be limited and you will see that inactive state more often. This app has no ads nor does it sell your data, so free version cannot be as good as Life360, nor it is trying to be. Premium versions have unlimited, instant and realtime location updates. If you use free trial period you can test it properly and see the difference yourself. I am sorry that the app didn't live up to the expectations and that you had subpar experience, that is definitely not the goal here. Thanks again for the concrete feedback, I'll do my best to address it as soon as possible. If you have any other comments, feel free to reach out to contact@paralino.com.

Heavily upsells subscription

The app is very unintuitive and not polished. It may have a lot of features but it’s just too cumbersome to use.

I dislike the constant upselling to the subscription options when I have no use for it and the free open works perfectly for me.

Hi, I am sorry you didn’t find enough value in Paralino. If you don’t mind, please share what exactly you think needs to be improved, I would love to make the app better. There is no need for it to be unintuitive. And subscriptions are the reason app is even working. When you use it for free, you are paying literally nothing. App doesn’t have ads nor does it sell your data, but it still has bills to pay. I hope you understand that someone else pays for the free usage of others. I you have any questions or feedback, feel free to reach out to me, I would be happy to answer your questions.

Awesome Location App

Love this app! Basically Find My Friends on encrypted steroids! I am on the paid max plan, got my whole family and some friends on it. Mostly accurate most of the time. Granted trees and buildings can interfere with GPS so not a huge deal. Love the fast and responsive devs. Can't recommend it more.

Best Location App!!!

Love this app, found it in January 2026 and have used it ever since for my family and friends. Love end-to-end encryption and the cross device support. Devs are very knowledgable and responsive! I will (and do) tell everyone about this app as an alternative to spýwąre like Life360.

Hervorragende Standortverfolgung, zuverlässig und besser als Wo Ist?. Einzig eine App für die Apple Watch würde ich mir wünschen!

Just awful

You can’t add or manage devices after you log in. If you add a debit can’t ever be removed so you are just spammed with pops telling you to give them money to add more devices

Hi, I am really sorry you had a bad experience with the app. But you can freely add and remove devices in any group and in your personal space -> just open details and tap on your member: https://paralino.com/help/location-sharing/remove-device/ You will see a list of devices and then you can tap on delete button to remove any of them. There is no limitation on this and there is no need to pay more. You control your data and your plan. If you had an issue or something was unclear, please reach out at contact@paralino.com so I can assist you. I really hope you can improve this rating since I believe you can still have a great experience with the app.

The only cross platform location app worth using

This is the only location sharing solution other than find my that is easy to use, cross platform and end to end encrypted. Thank god it exists

Best Privacy Family Tracker

Life360 ist eine Datenkrake. Wir haben dies vorher verwendet und sind froh eine tolle Alternative gefunden zu haben. Für gute Privatsphäre bezahle ich gern.

Private, Secure, Fully Featured, Beautifully Made, and User Friendly.

Finally, the location sharing app we’ve all been waiting for and needed. It’s beautifully made, user friendly, and most importantly, it’s secure and respects your privacy and that of those you connect with. Obviously still a work in progress, but I’m amazed at how good this is, with such a small team and little funding. I see good things ahead for this project, and more people need to spread the word and help support it. Keep up the good work!

Private location app

Does ask you to sign up, but there is a guest option where you can avoid putting in any personal information. Only lets you have one group with two people. At least 3 would be nice though. Regardless, is a good app. Relatively simple to use.

Thank you so much for a great review. Road trip history is already in the works and it is coming very soon. Building private and end-to-end encrypted features takes much more time so thank you for your patience. Hopefully when it’s out, we can earn those 5 stars :).

Best app for cross platform privacy location sharing

If you care about your data and want to know about the whereabouts of your loved ones, there’s no way around this app!!

Finally, a private, secure location sharing app

TL;DR I know this review looks like astroturfing, and the app is not perfect, but nothing ever is and Paralino is absolutely worth a try. It provides good privacy and security wrapped in pretty UI/UX, which is hard to do. I am just happy to see some kind of competition in the space, and you should be too!

This app is great! I’m shocked that the UI/UX is as good as it is, as most privacy focused services tend to sacrifice usability for security. Judging by the (at the time of writing, will WIP) architecture docs, this dev has managed to strike a balance without sacrificing anything (except probably their own time and mental health lol).

While it is not yet open source (again, at the time of writing), that is on the roadmap which is lovely to see. Even if this one day becomes self-hostable (please!), I would still happily pay to support development of a sustainable competitor to the other big players in this space.

The pricing scheme is also really smart and very reasonably priced. You can easily split the cost with a partner, or get even more value out of it by sharing with your family.

Definitely worth checking it out!

Oh no, sorry that this happened - this is definitely an anomaly. Please get in touch at contact@paralino.com with more details. We should solve this ASAP and get you up and running in no time. App is still very new so we are doing everything to make it as rock solid as possible.

Awesome app if it’s being honest

Love the interface and features. I like not having to give my gender, phone number and email to use the app. If the app if being honest about its encryption/privacy it’s awesome. Unfortunately I don’t have long term experience with the app so I can’t say it’s perfect but definitely something to keep an eye on. The free version restricts you to only 2 members in a group, so you basically have to upgrade but other than that awesome. Needs to go open source asap to be verified. That’s the only reason I removed a star.
