Here's what people are saying about Crash Detection

Shannon & niece

”A few hours ago, I received a call saying that Life360 had been alerted to a crash involving my niece. She was indeed in an accident, a rollover in fact. She’s alive, bruised and banged up, but alive. I just wanted to say thank you so much for this service. My sister was able to get to her almost as fast as EMS was. We’re just so grateful she’s safe and alive”

Ryan & sons

I never look at my phone during a patient session, but it kept buzzing and I knew there was something wrong as soon as my receptionist knocked on my door. I immediately left the office and used Life360 to direct me to my boys.

Shondra & Jerrod

Shondra found her son Jerrod after a car accident thanks to the Life360 app. “He was completely shaken, but he answered the second time I called. He told me what happened and then we immediately found his location Life360.
