This is far beyond ridiculous.
Has anyone had any success requesting a refund for the services not provided?
I think that's what we need to do.

Hello. I have two children with Android phones (Samsung S21's). We have used Microsoft Family Safety for a few years and location tracking has worked perfectly until a few weeks ago when it stopped updating their locations.
I looked at every setting on both their phones, making sure all of the recommended location settings, security settings, battery settings were correct. Still couldn't get their location which showed they were both "In the house" when they were actually at school.
I uninstalled the app from both phones and reinstalled it. I followed all of the security prompts for the recommended settings. Both phones started to report their location again.
However... one of my children is on a school trip. Their phone last reported in five hours ago from a service station 250 miles away. They are now at their destination, but the Microsoft Family Safety app still shows them where they were five hours ago (extremely worrying for a parent).
Looks like the probkem has happened again. This must be a Microsoft problem What are the chances of both my kids phones stopping reporting their location at exactly the same time?
Come on Microsoft please fix this. Our children are very important to us and the app is called Microsoft "Family Safety".

Ridiculous! Are there clowns working on this project? Or trainees?
I've found the version by joining the beta program and installed it on all Android devices: it worked again for 1 day 😁
But nog I can no longer find the list of location notifications...
Leaving the beta and u installing and reinstalling v1.24.2.962 the list of arrives/leaves is back in the settings...
Not for me unfortunately. I have just updated both mine and child's Android to 1.25.0.984 (Oct 29th) but location information still missing. I can see other child's iPhone but not Android.
New version of Family Safety has been published to the Play Store and so far appears to be working like normal. I had previously blocked updates after manually loading an older version, but this new version published Oct 29th seems to be working.
