Private live location sharing apps

This cluster consists of phone-tracking apps that locate a device by verified number and share live locations via private, often time-limited, links among family and friends. The dated entries show one isolated product in 2019, then a series of entries from February through November 2025, with the most entries in July 2025. The traction leaders—Starling, SpyX: Phone Monitoring, and nextcloud-app-phonetrack—all show zero stars, indicating minimal traction signal.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
