The Most Amazing App!
Tracking my daughter's cross-country trip with Serendipity has been a godsend and has given me peace of mind. I entered the addresses of the hotels she was going to stay at so I could receive notifications every time she arrived and left the hotel to get back on the road. The map accuracy is spot on and it was amazing to see the whole route she traveled. This app is amazing!

Simply Wow!
I took a trip with the guys and we all got on this app so we would always knew where each other was at any given time. The group functionality of the app allowed us to always keep track of each other. Another cool feature of this app is that it notifies you if people who are 2nd and 3rd-degree connections away from you are close by. This feature allowed me to meet someone that my wife knew who was right next to us in a restaurant. Very cool.

Love It!
This is a truly amazing app. My husband travels all the time....domestically and internationally. This app allows me to see when his plane arrives and departs at his layovers and I also see when he gets to his final destination. I can see the whole route he traveled and it just makes me feel safe knowing exactly where my husband is. I don't know how I lived without this technology and not knowing where my loved ones are. I use this to track my elderly parents as well and I even caught my mother on the wrong side of town which made me realize that it was the beginning of her dementia. A truly wonderful safety app for loved ones.

A Must-Have App!
This app has really helped me in day-to-day living. Due to my age, my children always want to know where I am and this allows them to see exactly where I am at any time. No more calls asking me where I am or what I am doing since they can see it on the app. I don't mind because they are just checking up on me to make sure I am okay. This also helped me many times when I was traveling and I got picked up at this very large airport and my son could not find me. All he did was pull out the app and he knew exactly where I was. My son even found my phone using this app. Everyone should have this.

My Mom's Favorite App!
This app has been incredible for my family. Due to my mom's medical issues, I want to track her because she lives alone and I want to make sure she is okay. If I don't see any movement from her on the app, I just send a quick message to her on the app just to make sure she is okay. We use this app all the time to watch out for each other and we just love it. I highly recommend it!

Lifesaver!
I am always worried about my seventeen-year-old who drives now. As a busy working mom, it's hard to keep track of everything with her after-school and weekend activities. With this app, I get notified every time she leaves or arrives home or at school. If for any reason, I don't get the text message of her arrival or departure then I look further into what's happening. This even allowed me to ensure she was safe when she traveled abroad for school. I don't know what I would do without this app.
