🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. Develop a privacy-focused dashboard that clearly displays all active tracking permissions and provides a one-tap kill switch for location sharing.
  2. Create a transparency report feature within the app that logs exactly when and why location services were triggered to reactivate.
  3. Build a community-led verification tool that tests and documents the reliability of 'off' states for various family tracking applications.
