Verizon Family Add or Remove Scheduled Time Alerts
Verizon Family
Add or Remove Scheduled Time AlertsEasily locate your child at a specific time on the days you choose by adding or removing scheduled time alerts in the Verizon Family parent app.
Before you begin
Alerts work even if the companion app isn't installed on your child's device. If the child isn't paired you will see "Location not available'.
To perform the steps below and to get the most accurate location results, you need to:
- have a Premium subscription. The Premium and Plus plans can schedule multiple alerts.
- ensure the Guardian and child devices are paired.
- ensure location sharing is on.
- ensure GPS is enabled on the device to be located. If necessary, refer to the device's user manual for instructions.
The new 'Free' plan can only schedule one alert. The Basic plan can't schedule alerts.
