Fun and Safety First with FUNA - Family Locator

Big Bad Wolf Books sale finally over liao. At least for this year. 

Wanna know something funny? The sales venue was so large that Mamarazzi had to resort to this to keep in touch with me. Kept worrying that I might go missing or got kidnapped. Reception for this “toy walkie-talkie” was pretty bad

Then Auntie Claire said since I have handphone, why not install FUNA in my phone? FUNA is a family locator apps. It provide REAL-Time update of a family member’s location . The apps even have a SOS alarm. Papa  and Mamarazzi can come to my rescue if I trigger the alarm. What’s more is that the apps is FREE.

Aiyoyo…Mamarazzi sees the word FREE …of course she will go and “investigate” la. 

Yesterday morning while having breakfast at Mamak Stall, she downloaded the apps. Yes, our home WIFI doing the Chipsmore dance and she thought this apps would use up a lot of data. So go Mamak and download lah. Surprise surprise....it was less than 20MB leh. Won't make her phone lag.

Very easy. Once downloaded, they sent her a verification Verification code and the rest as they say is history

 One hand clap no sound, right? So Mamarazzi sent a request to Papa phone via FUNA apps so that she can test out the apps. Location was accurate and it even provide the estimated distance.

Some maybe concern about privacy. Well, ones can opt to share or not to share ones location. Ones can say not sharing the location may defeat the purpose of the apps but like the songs says “everyone need a little time away~far away~ from each other~”.

Anyway, for like me...Mamarazzi would feel much better if I kept the share location turn on so that she knows my where about without having to keep calling me. Mana tau if I "ponteng"(play truant) tuition or what. Of course cannot keep calling me when am in tuition mah.

Mamarazzi don’t have to worry about “bad people” knowing my location as the location is confidential and only visible to family members or the ones that I added add into my  circle. 

If anything happened or if I needed help, I can always trigger an SOS alert.

 

Papa and/or Mamarazzi will receive an alert on their phone. They can opt either to call me and find out what’s the problem and/or they can navigate come and find me.

Very easy. Just press Navigate .

 

And the whatever navigation apps in their phone will take care of the rest.

 

Hmm….. I wonder if this apps can help me locate my phone as I kept misplacing it. If it can, maybe can use this to find lost/stolen phone too ya? Haven’t tried. If the thief did not switch off or reset the phone then can locate the phone gua.

Hmm…Papa and Mamarazzi thought only they can track me ah? I also can track them you know! Where’s my food? Say go buy food for me but till now not home yet.

Bluff me! say "on the way, on the way" .  I checked the apps and it shows that  they went “international roaming”. The map history shows zigzag here and there . Pusing till my head also sees stars.

 

 But no fear, according to the apps…another 5 minutes my "chicken rice” will arrive home. Get ready the fork and spoon liao. Hungry ahhhhhhh!!!
