If your child already owns a smartphone, there are numerous apps that parents can use to track their child’s location. For example, if your family all uses iPhones, you can use the Find My app. After your family members are set up to share their location, all you need to do is open up the app and it will show you a pulsing dot where your child’s phone (and presumably, your child) is located. The FindMy application is also available on the Apple Watch SE. Another option for other smartphones is the Google Maps app, which has a built-in feature that allows you to share your real-time location with trusted family and friends. All you do is go into settings in the app, determine how long you want to share your location and who you want to share it with, and you’re all set.
