I am being forced into installing Life360 on my phone, which as you all probably know, is a massive privacy violation. Just by looking through the AppStore data page, lots of sensitive information gets shared with third parties. There’s got to be a way to disable it, and only enable it when necessary right? Or am I out of options here? Even though it’s only slightly less of a privacy risk, I’d prefer using Apple’s find my service, which has most of the features that Life360 has, while also being built in to every iOS device. How do I reason with this person?

Life360 is mostly sold to parents to keep tabs on their children. Sorry OP, but if you’re under the age of majority in your country and your parents pay for all your stuff, you gotta do what they say.

Also commonly used by spouses with trust issues or after being cheated on
