Family tracking works best when each signal answers a defined question. Amoay TMC focuses on BLE last-seen context; Tracking Plus is for the moments that justify a live session.
Different questions need different signals
Where was the tag last seen? Is the child near the expected place? Does this journey need active visibility? These are different questions, so they should not all create the same data stream.
Why last-seen can be enough
A low-power BLE tag can provide useful proximity and last-seen information without pretending to be a permanent GPS beacon. The result is simpler for families and lighter on the device.
When live mode earns its place
Live tracking is most useful when a guardian chooses it for a journey, handoff or unusual situation. A deliberate start keeps the feature understandable.
Build privacy into the default
Show what is active, who can see it and when it ends. Clear controls create more trust than a hidden always-on promise.
A family-friendly tracking habit
Use TMC for everyday last-seen reassurance. Turn on a live session only when it adds decision-making value. Then close it when the moment passes.
