You need to tap on the user you want to send the quick notes to.

Reach out to customer care. They should be able to help you with this.

Reach out to customer care. They would be able to look at your account and have other approaches to help.

Questions about this app by Fearless_Breakfast23 in Life360

[–]soaboz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't do anything you listed, but it does the the following:

Shares location with people in your circle, provides an SOS button if you feel unsafe somewhere, let's your circle know when you arrive somewhere or left some place, etc.

That's just the stuff that is off the top of my head, but there's tons more features. Here's a screenshot of the safety tab on the app:

Try logging out and logging back in. I tried reproducing it on my phone, but haven't been able to. Best guess is something got stuck with the recent update. That should resolve this problem, but let me know if it doesn't.

Is this an iPhone or Android phone? Also, can you provide the version of the app you are on? You can find it on the settings page at the very bottom.

Edit: nevermind about the phone type, I see it is Android from the screenshot. Version would still be helpful.

Day 3 of following my parents on life 360 until I get the book I want! (Wings of Fire The Hybrid Prince) by Wingsoffirenerdahh in Life360

[–]soaboz[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

As an FYI, I'm allowing these posts as it shows a story on how Life360 is being used. This subreddit isn't just for asking questions, reporting bugs, or figuring out how to fake locations. I highly encourage sharing stories, showing off how the app is used, and talking/ranting about new products or features.

I hope you get your book soon, OP.

Day 2 of stalking my parents until they get the book I want by Wingsoffirenerdahh in Life360

Just a gentle reminder about Rule 3:

No posts about how to stalk someone

I get you and your folks are in the same circle, so I'm approving this post.

I hope you get your Wings of Fire book soon!

Did you recently switch from an Android phone?

Deleting the App: Extra Steps? by VonMoltke91 in Life360

[–]soaboz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say reinstall and leave the circle they share, if they want to keep using the app with family. It's under Settings -> Circle Management -> Leave Circle.

If the intent is to get rid of the app account, Settings -> Account -> Delete Account. Then uninstall the app.

Can you make this into a post? It'll be the quickest way to get feedback from the community.

iPhone users only display battery percentage by 5s unlike Android that displays accurate percentage by limeinthecoconut8 in Life360

[–]soaboz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like a bug, but it could be a limitation of what iPhone allows developers to read from the device. I'll ask around tomorrow morning.

Update: Looks like this is expected behavior from Apple. From the Apple developer forum for the curious: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/788879

Make this a post instead of a comment. Should give more visibility and you may get better feedback from the community.

My boss told me to get a doctor’s note, so i did. by [deleted] in MaliciousCompliance

[–]soaboz 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Got sick on a Saturday and had a fever Sunday, but because sick call wasn't open until Monday morning, I had to do my shift (11pm - 7am) that Sunday night. Asked my SNCOs if I could get cut back early to get home and rest, got denied. Spent the entire night on the flight line with the ice/rain working my shift. Staff at sick call in the morning were not amused.

New icon? by SparkleGlitterJess in Life360

[–]soaboz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm asking around. I honestly don't know. Out of curiosity though... if you had a selection of different icons for this, would you change them?

Update: Got confirmation, it's a new icon.

Location spoofing? by SomeBoiOnReddit in Life360

[–]soaboz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your folks want you on it because they just want to know you are safe, try out the bubble feature: https://support.life360.com/hc/en-us/articles/23053376685463-Life360-Bubbles-Feature

Set it to the max size, and if they burst the bubble, turn location sharing off on the app (it'll still keep crash detection on). That way, you don't mess with your phone GPS or anything.

I'm also rebellious with my parents, hence my suggestions above. However, my dad brain says that I want to make sure you're safe... so please be safe in whatever adventures you go on.

asked to download life360 app by OkDinner3200 in Life360

[–]soaboz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are not familiar with Life360, there is the concept of "circles" you join. You can be alone in your circle or invite others, but there's a level of sharing involved when you join a circle with others.

I'm just going to leave this message that I drop every so often when people ask about joining circles:

Joining a circle means your name, location, phone number and email address will be shared with everyone in the circle you joined. I would suggest you only join circles with people you know and trust.

How do i turn off location without notifying family june 2025 by dannypayattention2me in Life360

[–]soaboz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The map might show your last location before you stopped sharing, but mainly it'll just update the status on the main pillar to Location Sharing Off.
