Keep loved ones safe on every journey
Ensuring the safety of your loved ones on every journey has never been easier with Life360's free Crash Detection feature, which can detect collisions over 25mph, promptly notify the driver or passenger involved, and alert their Circle members if there's no response. Now, Crash Detection has the option to include Emergency Dispatch with Gold and Platinum membership. In the unfortunate event of an accident, Life360 will contact emergency responders, sharing precise location coordinates and staying on the line until help arrives.
Additionally, Emergency Dispatch is now available alongside Life360's SOS feature. With a simple tap of the "SOS" button, users can send a silent alert to their Circle members, along with their location. Now, in addition to alerting users' Circle members and emergency contacts, Life360's dedicated third-party emergency dispatchers will also call the member, assess the situation, and liaise with the appropriate authorities, whether it's the police or ambulance service, to ensure timely assistance if needed.

"Life360 plays a very important role in our lives. With a family of avid motorbike enthusiasts, including three teenagers, knowing that our loved ones have arrived safely at their destinations and being able to track their speed and driving behaviour brings immense comfort and peace of mind," said Life360 user, Heba Haywood. "I love how incredibly easy to use and accurate it is. We've even introduced our parents to the app."
Breakdown assistance around the clock
Car trouble can happen even to the safest drivers, so Life360's new Breakdown Assistance helps members if they're ever stuck on the roadside. Any member of the family Circle can request roadside assistance for towing, flat tires, lost keys, extra petrol or other needs. The new feature provides parents and their new teen drivers confidence when they hit the road, as Life360's service provider is on hand 24/7 and will send a trained professional straight to the member. Life360's membership will cover 10-mile local towing for Gold members or nationwide towing for Platinum members.
Digital security for the whole family
Identity theft happens to one in three families; Life360's Data Breach Alerts and Identity Theft Protection ensure peace of mind in an ever-evolving digital landscape. With Data Breach Alerts, Life360's partner actively scans the dark web to detect potential breaches and immediately alerts members. In case of identity theft, Life360's partner specialists provide guidance for recovery and offer options for stolen funds reimbursement.*
