Locategy Unavailable: Family Location and Parental-Control Alternatives

Locategy unavailable: family location and parentalcontrol alternatives

Locategy’s former website is unavailable as a reliable product and support destination. For a new setup, use a supported family-location or parental-control service instead.

What happened to Locategy?

Locategy combined family-location features with parental-control functions. Those are different needs: location sharing helps family members find one another, while screen-time and app rules manage device use. A replacement may cover one or both.

What existing customers should do

A former website or redirected domain does not transfer your account to a new service. Review any remaining location permissions and subscriptions, then invite family members to the replacement directly.

Before removing an old app, check whether it has device-administrator access, a management profile or location permissions. Follow the device’s normal removal steps, then check the replacement’s controls on the child’s actual device. Use transparent family rules and limit access to personal messages and location.

Alternatives to consider

For family location sharing, compare Life360 and Google Maps. For screen-time limits and web controls, start with Qustodio. These tools address different needs; they do not transfer a Locategy account or its records.
