The app can also not track a phone if it&#8217;s out of the AT&amp;T coverage area. However, AT&amp;T can track a phone if GPS is off, but the location won&#8217;t be as accurate since it will use cellular towers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Why-is-AT-T-Secure-Family-Not-Working\">Why is AT&amp;T Secure Family Not Working?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The reasons the Secure Family app is not working, and their solutions, are listed below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>You&#8217;ve Not Installed the Secure Family Companion App<br><\/strong>If you&#8217;ve not yet paired Secure Family with the companion device, it will not monitor any features. In addition, if your kid has removed the companion app as an active app on their phone, you will not be able to use Secure Family features. Ensure that you have paired your device with the companion app and that the app is active on the respective phone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Your Child&#8217;s Mobile Data is Off<br><\/strong>Secure Family must use cellular data to function properly. Check if the companion device settings have changed and return them to the proper settings to allow Secure Family to function.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>You are Logged into More Than One Device<br><\/strong>If you are logged into two devices and want to be located, your location may show as stuck or bounce between two places. Always check that you are logged into one device for location tracking to work accurately.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>You Are Using an Outdated Secure Family Version<br><\/strong>The Secure Family app may not work if you&#8217;re not using the latest version. Updating AT&amp;T Secure Family data on all authorized app users&#8217; phones will help you access the app&#8217;s features.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>You Are Using Third-Party Apps that Block Secure Family<br><\/strong>Some apps like task managers and app killers claim to reduce battery life dramatically, but they prevent Secure Family from running. This means you can&#8217;t access all the features of this app. You need to access these apps and permit Secure Family to run.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Secure-Family-App-Reviews\">Secure Family App Reviews<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>AT&amp;T Secure Family has 34.2k reviews on Google Play and 13.2k reviews on the App Store.

Next, enter the number you want to locate in the search bar. Then send a location request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scannero will send a text message with a location tracking link to the target phone. Once the person clicks on the link, Scannero will obtain their location using their IP address. This takes only a few minutes. Scannero will show you the person&#8217;s location on a map. The location details include their real-time location, address, accuracy, and time stamps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1548\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/heylocate.mobi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/process-of-how-to-see-location-by-number-by-sending-sms-through-scannero-io-service-en-1548x1000.jpg\" alt=\"Entering a phone number, sending a voice message and displaying information on the map\" class=\"wp-image-20706\" srcset=\"https:\/\/heylocate.mobi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/process-of-how-to-see-location-by-number-by-sending-sms-through-scannero-io-service-en-1548x1000.jpg 1548w, https:\/\/heylocate.mobi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/process-of-how-to-see-location-by-number-by-sending-sms-through-scannero-io-service-en-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/heylocate.mobi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/process-of-how-to-see-location-by-number-by-sending-sms-through-scannero-io-service-en-768x496.jpg 768w, https:\/\/heylocate.mobi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/process-of-how-to-see-location-by-number-by-sending-sms-through-scannero-io-service-en-1536x992.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/heylocate.mobi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/process-of-how-to-see-location-by-number-by-sending-sms-through-scannero-io-service-en.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1548px) 100vw, 1548px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Scannero is compatible with all devices, regardless of mobile carrier or phone type, since it&#8217;s web-based.

You can install it remotely on iPhones but require physical access on Android devices. uMobix operates in stealth mode. Once installed, it disguises itself, making it hard for a child to find it. Thus, it isn&#8217;t easy to uninstall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>uMobix syncs the features of the monitored device to an online dashboard. You will see all the tracked features, including the phone&#8217;s real-time location, call logs, and text messages. You can scroll the dashboard to see the entered keystroke, social media chats, and browser history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/heylocate.mobi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/umobix-tracking-app-whatsapp-messages-applications-location-address-book-en-gif.gif\" alt=\"uMobix dashboard with messages tracking feature\" class=\"wp-image-19011\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>uMobix allows you to stay in the loop of your child&#8217;s digital activities to guide them appropriately.
