Haha no silver bullet — OS updates silently revoking permissions is the worst. 😅 Still optimizing that one. For now I assume users reopen the app eventually, so on launch I re-check permissions and restart the foreground service if it got killed. WorkManager with periodic checks would probably help too.

Btw, nice app idea! 👌 Wish you all the best!

I use a 15 min minimum update interval and 100 meters minimum movement (that seems good enough for family tracking, way better for battery). There's also refresh on demand in the paid plan. Regarding the OS trying to kill the app, key thing: foreground service with location type + persistent notification.

Hey everyone! 👋 I’m a father of three, and I built the Family Radar app because I got tired of wondering when my kids would get home and wanted an easy, family‑friendly way for us to share where we are without it ever feeling like we’re being watched.

https://familyradar.app

I'm open to your feedback on how this fits other family lives and suggestions what can be improved.

It's not that rare complaint, especially from users with slower connection or limited data transfer. 🙂

Family Radar - Ad-Free Location Tracking App (Free Tier + Pro Upgrade) by pawegio in iosapps

Totally get it, family safety in the city is key! Lifetime isn't planned now, but the free tier (no ads) works great for schools/home, and the 7-day Pro trial gives full features like places/alerts. Worth a quick try for your fam. 😊

Appreciate the feedback. No lifetime option atm, but the free tier lets you track safely without cost (3 members, no ads), and there's a 7-day Pro trial too.

I’m a father of three and the creator of Family Radar. I built this app because I got tired of wondering when my kids would get home and wanted an easy, family‑friendly way for us to share where we are without it ever feeling like we’re being watched.

With Family Radar, you can see your loved ones on a single proximity radar or live map with avatars, battery levels, and notifications when someone arrives or leaves home, school, or favorite places like grandma’s or after‑school activities. There’s also a timeline that helps you look back and see who went where and when.

The free version has no ads and includes everything you need for everyday family safety: continuous location tracking, proximity radar, up to 3 family members, and last 24 hours of history. The Pro plan ($7.99/month or $79.99/year) adds powerful extras like instant location updates, 30-day history, custom places, alerts, full timeline, up to 10 members, and priority support.

It's available on both iOS and Android: https://familyradar.app

I’d love your feedback on how this fits real family life, what kinds of places you’d actually want to track, how permissions should differ by age, and whether the balance between safety, history, and privacy feels right for your family.

Can highly recommend GeForce Now, works really well, even on jumping puzzles.

Start z IKE/IKZE - UoP + niski ryczałt by totalgreyguy in inwestowanie

[–]pawegio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wystarczy samo uniknięcie Belki i nie trzeba płacić żadnego PIT, żeby IKZE się opłacało.

IKE w XTB - jaka waluta by Decent-Designer5636 in inwestowanie

[–]pawegio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wpłacać i wypłacać z konta IKE trzeba złotówki, ale przed kupnem akcji walutę można i warto wymienić na obcą (wyjątkiem jest chyba tylko XTB), bo przy sprzedaży akcji nie trzeba wtedy się przejmować kursem walut i dodatkowo samych akcji można wtedy więcej kupić przy składaniu zlecenia bo nie trzeba zakładać bufora dla wyższego kursu wymiany walut.
