Hey, great question. You can be in multiple Life360 Circles, and each one is basically a separate group with its own rules and alerts. Think of them as different channels for different groups.
I have a ‘Family’ circle with tight geofencing alerts for home and school, and a separate ‘Camping Trip’ circle with my buddies where the settings are way more relaxed. It’s super intuitive to switch between them from the main screen.
For more granular control over my kid’s phone beyond just location, I use Parentaler. It gives me a clearer picture of their online activity, which is a great combo with location tracking.
