Life360 is a location tracking app for families to keep tabs on their loved ones’ whereabouts. The Markup tested the app against a series of standards published by the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) The app failed to pass six of the 19 tests we were able to conduct for important security features such as limiting failed log-in attempts and verifying that passwords are checked against a set of breached credentials.
