Overview: FamilyTracker allows you to track Android or Apple iOS devices.

WORKS WITH ALL DEVICES (Android v.2.2 and up). IF YOU HAVE DIFFICULTIES SETTING IT UP, PLEASE EMAIL US! WE REPLY TO ALL EMIALS!
Family Tracker allows you to track Android or Apple iOS devices and send free text messages between the users.
* Android users can track iPhone users and vice versa
* No monthly or any other periodic fees
* You can force updates remotely at any time without the user having to take any actions and it does not matter if the application is running or not
* The ability to send a "Stealthy Ping", which will force an automatic location update of the remote device without the person being notified. This feature is only available if the device bing tracked is Android and has Family Tracker ver. 2.4.4 or above installed.
* Even if the phone is rebooted, Family Tracker will automatically resume tracking and updating its position!
* Free texts between phones
* Find your phone when lost or stolen
* Force a sound even if the phone is on vibrate or silent
* Track phones via the web
* There are no limits to the number of users to track
* Uses the latest C2DM technology
* Tablet compatible - including Motorola Xoom
FamilyTracker allows you to track your children, wife, husband and fiancée. You can now find out where they are, at anytime, as long as they have their Android phones or iPhones with them.
So how does this work?

Simple. Install Family Tracker on the Android/iPhone/iPad you want to track. From then on, you can use either a web browser or via the Family Tracker app itself installed on your own device to locate your family member.
Each device with FamilyTracker installed has the option to automatically update its location at regular intervals (from every 1 min. to every 1 hour). You can adjust the frequency of the updates on the "Settings" tab. The automatic feature can be turned on/off by the user by going to the "Settings" tab as well.
Whether the user has their automatic tracking service disabled or not you can always force an update of their location at any time.

Any time you would like to see the current location of a device you can "ping" it, which will send a tracking notification to the user. The "Stealthy Ping" feature works only if the targeted device has Family Tracker ver. 2.4.4 or above.

There are 2 ways to set up tracking a phone with our application:
1. Having the application installed on both phones- yours and the person you want to track. Once it is installed on both phones, you can send a request to track them from your phone and they have to approve your request. Then you can track them from your phone.
2. Install the Family Tracker application only on the phone you want to track and then use our website to track it, force location updates and send free messages. To do this, your email address needs to be added under the
"Locate Me"
tab of the Family Tracker application on the phone you want to track. Then you will automatically get an email with instructions how to track the phone via the web.

Family Tracker does not need to know your phone's cell number to function, as it does not send SMS messages for notifications. Your email address is instead used to send free Push Notifications to the device being tracked.

These notifications are free, specific to our Family Tracker application, and work anywhere in the world as long as the device being tracked has internet access via the cellular network or WiFi.
*** Requires Android OS version 2.2 and up ***
Track your kids, family, wife, husband, fiancée, friends, employees and coworkers. Be able to find their location in real time.

What's in this version:
Added support for the notification LED light (for those devices that have notification LED's). When a text notification comes in and the screen is off, the LED light will flash in blue color to let you know that a Family Tracker text notification came in. Stealthy pings remain stealthy and the LED light will not flash.
Automatic refresh when a reply notification comes in.
Minor bug fixes.

I can't get this to work, even though I have the phone connected to my wireless internet and GPS fine.

After typing my email address It keeps saying 'A network error has occurred, retry or cancel and return to the previous screen.'

Any ideas?

More appropriate name would be family stalker. Poor kids with parents like this.

My view is if your a parent then your constantly concerned about the safety of the children, which should be a parents number one priority.

My Wife and two daughters were, for the very first time, away abroad on their own a couple of weeks ago, I would have loved to be able to be kept reassured that they were ok and at their destination all safe and sound and whilst out of the hotel.

Not all parents
Each to their own I suppose

Showing a blank map with a dot--no idea where the phone is at. Anyone having similar problems?

I'm using an HTC ThunderBolt and testing to see if it can find my wife's iPhone 4.

The iPhone 4 can find the HTC ThunderBolt just fine, with the same exact "Family Tracker" app running on the iPhone.

(Note: Google Maps apps works fine for me)

Works great for me. I have it installed on a Nexus One, Droid X and a couple of HTC Evo's. These are my family phones. But I also have a couple of friends with iPhones and I can track them as well and it works fine.

Make sure that the location services on the iPhone are enabled. I had this issue once, because the remote phone had all of its location services disabled, so it never reported its location.

I found some answers here 8) :

Hope this helps.
