Hi guys,

My dad is 60 years old, most of time he uses to walk in the evening and by mistake he puts cellphone in silent or sometime he comes late at home.

And I get worried about him, I can call him, but its awkward to call all the time, sometime he is in meeting with poltical party friends.

So kindly suggest me a very good app for his lenovo ,redmi phones. I have installed family locater app today, but its asking for GPS ON all the time. Is it possible to use mobile network to locate his location with battery eating GPS ?

There are lots of family locater apps, but all are costly. Suggest me cheap or free apps. Can we find his real time location using google services without any app?

reply soon guys... :) Thank You.

you will need GPS on to locate the phone even in Android Device Manager.

only Cops & Service providers can track the phone using IMEI


u can try with battery saving GPS mode instead of High accuracy
