OK, so I admit that I’m a worrier. If you’re like me and have kids, you might want to download the Trick or Tracker app, which allows you to keep track of your ghosts and goblins on Halloween.
The app installs on both the parent’s phone and the child’s phone, allowing the parent to find the child either on demand or at pre-set check-in intervals. It allows kids to locate parents or to send a distress message to parents in a time of need, notifying the parents with the child’s exact physical location.
The app also has a flashlight feature that illuminates the phone screen, casting a ray of light on a child’s path. This flashlight feature is available in white, as well as in several glow-stick colors and patterns (orange, pink, blue, red, and green).
The app costs $4.99 for a lifetime license, but on Halloween Day, it will be available from www.trickortracker.com for free from 8 a.m. until 11:59 (EST). It is available in English and Spanish.
