Verizon Family Companion 8.69.09

The Verizon Family Companion app offers a suite of features aimed at enhancing family connectivity and safety. Designed primarily for dependents on a Verizon Family account, the app enables users to:

• Locate guardians, members, and other dependents, provided location sharing permissions are granted
• Send check-in updates, allowing guardians to monitor their location
• Request a pick-me-up from a guardian when needed
• Initiate or receive a Safe Walk, along with the ability to send or receive SOS alerts
• Access driving insights to promote responsible driving habits

This application is specifically designed for minors within the family, while adults can utilize the Verizon Family app for broader account management.

The app employs Accessibility and VPN services to enhance parental control capabilities. These services work in tandem to restrict children's access to websites deemed inappropriate by parents and to safeguard against the disabling of crucial parental control features.
