Privacy-first, by design
Your family's location belongs to your family. We don't sell it, share it with brokers, or hand it to advertisers. There are no third-party trackers in Orinn — full stop.

Why Orinn
A family app that respects everyone in the family.
Built for real families
One parent, two parents, grandparents, a sitter — Orinn handles the messy reality of who needs to know what, without making your kid feel watched. Trust is the feature.
Designed to be ignored
The best family safety app is one you barely open. Orinn pings you when something matters — arrival, departure, an SOS — and stays out of the way the rest of the time. No streaks. No nudges.
Features
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
Live map
See everyone in the family at a glance, updated in real time.
Saved places & alerts
Get a quiet ping when they reach school, home, or anywhere that matters.
Trip tracking
Drives and walks captured automatically — start, end, and the route between.
SOS
A single tap from your kid's phone alerts every parent in the family.
Family chat
Lightweight messaging built into the app — no separate group thread to manage.
Day history
A simple timeline of where the day went, kept private to your family.
See it in action
Built calm, on purpose.
Six screens that tell you what the app actually feels like.
Open the app. See your family.
The first thing you see is the map — your kids, their last-known places, fresh to the second. No ads. No upsell banners. No "complete your profile" prompts. Just the dot you came here for.
Know the moments that matter.
A 14-second speed spike, mid-drive. We noticed. The parent got a push. Tap the alert, see the exact stretch of road, the speed graph, the safety score. Calm location doesn't mean blind to risk.
The story of their day.
Not just dots on a map. A timeline of where they actually went — walked to school, stayed through the day, drove to soccer, came home. Tap any trip for the route, the speed, the safety read-out.
Quietly watches the school run.
Orinn learns your kid's regular trips and lets you know if they're late or off-route — without you having to set a single alarm. The app is paying attention so you don't have to.
The signals that matter, on one screen.
Arrivals. Departures. Trip start. A sustained high speed in the car. A phone running low on battery. A past SOS your kid sent. Everything that's actually worth a glance — and nothing that isn't.
Set a Spot in 30 seconds.
Pick the place. Name it. Choose which kid it applies to. Decide if you want a ping on arrival, departure, or both. That's the entire setup — no map drawing, no GPS coordinates, no fuss.
Plans & pricing
Honest pricing. No data trade.
Two plans. Family pricing — one purchase covers every parent and kid. The free plan is a real product, not a demo. The paid plan funds the privacy promise.

The privacy section
Family safety shouldn't cost your family's data.
Family location data has been a quiet revenue stream for the apps in this category — independently reported by The Markup in 2021 and acted on by the FTC in 2024. Orinn was built so that revenue stream is structurally absent: no buyer relationships, no broker pipe, no advertising business. We're not in that market.
What Orinn doesn't do
- No ads. Anywhere. Ever.
- No third-party analytics or marketing trackers.
- We do not sell or share your location with data brokers.
- We do not scan your kids' messages, photos, or browsing.
- No location history is kept after you close your account.
- No social feed, friend graph, or public profile.
What we do collect, and why
Account email — so you can sign in
Used for sign-in and to send you product-critical messages (e.g. a security alert). Not used for marketing.
Family member names — so the map isn't anonymous
Stored in your family's private data. We never use names for analytics or marketing.
Device location — so the app can tell you where they are
Sent encrypted to Orinn and shared only with the family members you've invited. Recent points are kept so you can see day history; older points roll off automatically.
Battery and connectivity — so you know if a phone is dead, not lost
A small piece of context that turns "where are they?" into a useful answer instead of a worry.
Crash reports — so we can fix bugs
Anonymous diagnostic data from Apple's standard crash reporter. You can turn this off in iOS Settings.
Common questions
The five we get most.
The short answers — full breakdown on the FAQ page.
Will my kid know they're being tracked?
Yes. Your kid installs their own version of the Orinn app and can pause sharing for short windows. We think transparency is the foundation of trust.
Do you sell my family's location data?
No. We don't sell, share, or hand your data to brokers, advertisers, or anyone else. The paid plan funds the company so we never need that revenue.
Does Orinn drain the battery?
About 2–4% of a typical day. We use Apple's low-power location APIs most of the time and only switch to high-accuracy GPS during active trips and brief locate-now requests.
Does my kid need their own iPhone?
Yes. Orinn pairs to a kid's iPhone running iOS 17 or later. Their phone is what reports location back to your family.
How does the founding-member offer work?
The first 10,000 families in the first 90 days get every Plus feature free for 12 months. After your year, your renewal is locked at $19/year forever — half the standard rate. No card required at signup.
