Service auto renews every 30 days unless cancelled.  To use the AT&T Secure Family service, you must download two Apps: the AT&T Secure Family App (adults, parents or guardians) and the AT&T Secure Family Companion App (family member). Visit att.com/securefamily for details.\n\nInstall the Companion App on your child’s device and pair it with the Parent App on your device. Pairing is required to access all features. Only authorized app users have permission to use the App to locate a family member’s device. Requires iOS v.17+ or higher.\n\nNote: Continued use of GPS running in the background can reduce battery life. Availability, timeliness, or accuracy of location is not guaranteed. Coverage not available in all areas.\n\nThere is a compatibility conflict that can prevent the addition of AT&T Secure Family Companion App to your child’s companion device if you have AT&T ActiveArmor Advanced Mobile Security running on the same companion device.  If you wish to continue with the purchase, you must downgrade to the FREE version of AT&T ActiveArmor Mobile Security on the companion device before adding AT&T Secure Family Companion App.\n\nAT&T Secure Family FAQs: https://att.com/securefamilyguides\n\nThe collection, use, and disclosure of any personal information through this application is governed by AT&T's Privacy Policy found at: att.com/privacypolicy and the App’s End User License Agreement found at att.com/legal/terms.secureFamilyEULA.html.\n\n* AT&T Postpaid Wireless customers:\nView, modify or cancel service anytime within the Secure Family app.\nAT&T does not provide credits or refunds for partial months.\n\n* AT&T PREPAID wireless customers and all other mobile networks billed by the App Store:\nSee Apple’s polices regarding cancellation in the App Store at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202039","facts":{"developer_id":290854684,"developer_url":"http://att.com/securefamily","first_released":"2018-11-07T05:36:01Z","support_url":null,"privacy_url":null,"website_url":null,"app_version":"12.2.2","release_notes":"Driving Insights: View your trips as a driver or passenger, explore trip details, and see your drive score and driving activity all in one place \n\nBug fixes and updated UI to improve your experience.","rating_current_version":1.23539,"rating_count_current_version":2345,"star_counts":null,"genres":["Lifestyle"],"languages":["AR","EN"],"content_advisories":null,"device_families":null,"made_for_iphone_duo":null,"chart":null},"freshness":{"apple_read_at":"2026-10-19T06:49:12.515Z","catalog_read_at":null,"reviews_checked_at":null,"summary_written_at":"2026-10-24T11:22:12.724Z","placed_at":"2026-10-19T13:14:11.686Z","scored_at":"2026-10-24T13:27:12.851Z"},"editorial":{"one_liner":"Free companion app for family members' devices, paired with AT&T Secure Family to share location, manage screen time.","what_is":"AT&T Secure Family Companion is a mobile app installed on a family member's device so parents or guardians can locate it in real time, manage screen time and online content, and review driving activity.
