BunBun app is created for parental control intentions, mostly aimed at teenagers and younger kids in the family. The user interface is kept simple and suitable for ages as low as 6.

This app creates a foreground service on your phone that runs at all times. It of course lets your device go to sleep mode when there is no activity. Whenever you walk or carry your phone with you on a bike or any means of transportation, the app detects this movement and starts tracking your location until you come to a halt.

This method has the least battery consumption compared to other mechanisms and this is also recommended as a best practice.

Compared to many other apps, we claim that we have the least amount of unnecessary battery consumption.

🔒 Privacy
The tracking mechanism works only after you give your consent to that particular family member. There is a consent code requirement between you and your parent/relative to let both parties be aware of their consent in being tracked and observing

📱 Permissions
Background location: We require this permission as the core functionality of this app is to track your geo-positional location at all costs.

Activity recognition: With this permission, we are able to understand that if you are walking, riding a bike, or in a vehicle.

Ignore battery optimizations: To make sure that the app runs flawlessly at all times, we require you to unlist our app from the battery optimization list, therefore when your device goes to a deep sleeping mode, it won't accidentally terminate our services. We promise that thanks to the clever movement detection mechanism, our app already is using a small amount of battery life. You will notice that yourself, after a couple of days of use, and can verify the total battery consumption from the Android Settings -> Battery section.
