Pricing
Family Plan
Free for 30 days first. No card to start. Up to 6 people at this price when you switch from another app and bring them.
Family Plan+ · $2.99 a month, up to 10 people. The same plan, bigger. Add a fifth person and yours moves to it by itself — prorated, nothing to set up — and moves back if the family shrinks.
Family Member Add-on · $9.99 a year. One named person for twelve months, whatever happens to the plan — for an eleventh, or someone who should not take a seat. Buy again to add another year.
Start it in the app: Settings → Family plan.
Because it is not carrying a company. Radius draws its own maps and sends calls directly between phones, so there is no per-user cloud bill to recover every month.
The manager is asked once. Nothing is deleted while you decide, and your data stays yours either way — the delete button works whether you have paid or not.
Life360's useful tier is $149.99 a year — $750 over five years. Radius over five years is about $120. The full comparison.
How the plan works
Sign in and your plan exists — free for thirty days, with you on it and room for three more. There is nothing to set up and no card to enter.
From your list, or by typing an email address or phone number. Everyone on the plan shares your thirty days, so nobody's clock runs out before yours does.
The same plan flips to paid — $1.99 a month — and nobody on it notices anything. Change the card, see receipts, or cancel any time; a cancelled plan runs to the end of the month already paid for.
Everyone on the plan sees the manager and the manager sees everyone. Whether two people on it see each other is the manager's circles: only while both are filed in the same one. Sam files Alex under Partner and Riley and Jo under Kids — Riley and Jo see each other and Sam; Alex sees only Sam. Everyone added starts in Family, together, until sorted. Each person's account, data and their own circles stay their own — their filing changes nothing about who sees whom. Someone on your plan can run their own family too — for a partner, a child, a friend — at $1.99 for up to four. Their people see them, not you.
Bring your whole circle across and keep them all: up to six people on the $1.99, seven to ten for $2.99 a month, beyond that $9.99 a year per person. You name your people by phone or email; each is a seat the moment they sign in on their own phone, and over the thirty days each phone must report on 90% of its days — the ones that don't are taken off at the end, and you are told exactly who and why. How the switch works, and why we ask who rather than how many.
Paid once by the manager for a named person: twelve months of Radius for them, whatever happens to the plan — cancel it, or take them off, and they keep what was paid for until the year is up, then get the ordinary thirty-day countdown and the $1.99 offer of their own. Buy again to add another year. They never take a seat.
