5 apps for spying on your spouse
How to keep tabs on your loved ones—for better or for worse

Trick or Tracker

Many parents want to keep track of their kids—and not just on Halloween. Wayne Irving, a father of four and the president and CEO of Laguna Niguel, Calif.-based technology company Iconosys, has a novel solution. Trick or Tracker , available only on Android, can be used by up to seven family members at one time. The app must be downloaded on both parties’ smartphones—with their permission, of course. It can send text alerts when a child has traveled out of a previously agreed area, and it has a latchkey-kid feature that can ping a parent when a child arrives home. It tracks the phone using the geolocation data contained in text messages and sends the person’s location every 15 minutes. Irving says it could also be used to track a child in the unlikely event of an abduction. It’s $4.99 and, according to Irving, it currently has 368,000 users.
