Features & Capabilities

Keep Your Child Safer Online and at Home

Sexual predators targeting children online is a scary reality. The OffenderWatch family safety app helps parents protect their children from the unthinkable. Family location sharing allows parents to track their children on a map and see if registered sex offenders live nearby. Parents can also search for registered sex offenders by name or address, see the photo and details about an offender, submit-a-tip about the offender, contact local law enforcement, and get an alert should a registered sex offender move in nearby. (Offender data is for US states only and limited to those offenders published by the state) The OffenderWatch app includes friendly advice and articles about protecting your child at home and online.

Unlike other apps, OffenderWatch has partnered with law enforcement to bring the most complete and correct data on registered sex offenders available. Parents subscribe to receive alerts should their child get contacted by a registered sex offender by text, phone call, or email.sets up a contact for an offender. Parents also receive location alerts should their child linger near a registered sex offender’s home.

A Protect Plus subscription is just $4.99 per month and covers the entire family.

How the OffenderWatch monitoring Works

1 Monitor Your Child’s Device

The OffenderWatch app monitors who calls, emails, or messages your child, and tracks the location on of child’s iPhone—working silently in the background and not interfering with the phone’s use.

User Reviews

The app is praised for safety intent and easy setup, with reviewers noting it helps track kids and identify nearby offenders and even being sheriff-recommended. However, many users report reliability and data issues, including maps showing no offenders, outdated or inaccurate data, incomplete offender details, and hard-to-navigate interfaces. A major recurring complaint is the subscription/paywall model, with upgrade prompts and paid features not functioning. Overall, users see potential for safety benefits but face gaps in data, functionality across states, leading to frustration.

Pros

Provides visibility of nearby offenders on a map to help keep kids safe.
Easy setup and Apple account integration, enabling quick start.
Safety-focused concept with positive sentiment (sheriff recommended, much-needed).
Ability to see if offenders contact your kids.

Cons

Map often shows no offenders or fails to load in many areas, making it unreliable.
Data is outdated or inaccurate, with old addresses or missing registry entries.
Subscription/paywall prompts and paid features that may not work as advertised.
Reliability issues like the app not starting or search not functioning.
Incomplete offender details in profiles (often 'not available' or lacking photos/convictions).

So I had to give my email after doing so I should be able to search city and state, but it also wants ZIP Code and other information. I don’t understand why I can’t just say the town and state? that it is in the state or whenever you move the map why nothing pops up. It’s a very outdated app that needs work
