AT&T now offers the AT&T
FamilyMap App on the App Store for iPhone. The app provides families with a more
seamless experience when locating and connecting with one another on
the go using iPhone. This app could come in handy if kids are out in the snow, because now parents can view maps of where their family members are on their phones.
The AT&T FamilyMap app brings a streamlined approach to helping families stay up to speed on each other's whereabouts by locating wireless devices within a shared family account. The app provides iPhone users with access to FamilyMap's features which until now, were only accessible through a computer
Interactive Map: View whereabouts within an interactive map, including surrounding landmarks such as schools and parks; and, toggle between satellite and interactive street maps.Personalize: Assign a name and photo to each device within an account, and label frequently visited locations such as "Bobby's house" and "School."
iPhone customers can also take advantage of additional FamilyMap features, including
- Schedule Checks: Use the app to see if a family member is on schedule. Parents can schedule and receive text and email alerts.
- My Places: Set up and view a list of landmarks within the app. Users can display the landmark on the map, edit the landmark's details, and remove or add landmarks.
Peace of Mind.
First launched in spring 2009, AT&T FamilyMap provides parents and families with the ability to easily locate a family member's wireless device using either a compatible handset or computer.
In keeping with AT&T's industry-leading stance on privacy, AT&T FamilyMap can only be established for numbers listed within a shared billing account. The account owner oversees all privacy preferences and is notified when devices within the account first become locatable.
