30-Day Family Location History

Rewind time — see every route, stop, and journey your family made.

Review past journeys, speeds, and stops from the last 30 days with detailed interactive timelines. Verify whereabouts, understand commute patterns, and export route data when you need it.

Overview

The WheresNow 30-Day Location History feature transforms raw GPS data into a meaningful, searchable record of every place your family has been over the past month. Rather than relying on memory or asking your children where they went after school, you can open the timeline and see the exact route taken, the speed travelled at each segment, and how long they paused at specific locations.

The interactive timeline is built for clarity. Scrub back to any day in the last 30 days and the map draws the complete journey as a visual path, colour-coded by speed. Stop markers indicate where a family member paused and for how long — so you can distinguish between a quick red-light stop and an unexpected 45-minute detour. This level of detail is invaluable when you need to verify whereabouts after an incident or simply want to understand daily patterns without intrusive check-in calls.

For families with teenage drivers, location history provides quiet accountability. Rather than demanding explanations, parents can review driving behaviour — speeds, routes, unfamiliar stops — and use that context to start informed conversations. For families caring for elderly relatives, the history log offers reassurance that usual routines are being followed.

Data can be exported as CSV or PDF for personal records, insurance claims, or in rare cases where accurate route data needs to be provided to authorities. Location history is stored securely per member and older entries are archived automatically after 30 days, keeping your storage footprint lean while preserving the information window that matters most.
