User Reviews

Overall, users appreciate OnStar Guardian for locating family members and safety features, with easy setup and cross-vehicle support. However, common issues include GPS inaccuracies, frequent crashes or blank screens, and login/outage problems. Billing and subscription friction, including renewal prompts and cancellation difficulties, are repeatedly noted. Privacy concerns regarding permissions and data collection are also frequent. Despite positive experiences when it works, persistent technical and subscription problems limit consistent satisfaction.

My phones get stuck in locations for hours and the only way to get them to move is to reboot all phones.

It says one member of my family is sitting on the other side of a lake and been there for 3 weeks. He is currently an hour drive away from where it says he is at.
