Sidekick is about the speed and power of transparency. It's about enjoying the benefits of staying connected to your trusted network of friends and family.

Sidekick technology helps us in life's everyday situations. It aids in navigation, marking locations, sharing locations, finding lost devices. It allows us to communicate more freely.

What makes Sidekick unique?

1. 3 months free trial period.

2. Locate Your Trusted Network of People; Instantly pinpoint location and calculate distance from your trusted contacts. Not just where they are, but how far away they are from you.

3. Find My Phone for Android featuring exclusive phone finding tools. One of the coolest things Sidekick does is make your friend's phone ring when it is set to silent mode. It even has a locator beacon feature that activates the LED light on your friend's phone if you are looking for a lost device in the dark. Last, it includes a fun sonar style tool that beeps faster as you get closer to your lost device.

4. New! Pinpix ™ Technology: Adding photos to your pin drops is redefining the way people give directions and share places.

Step 1. Take picture or add from gallery
Step 2. Share picture to SideKick
Step 3. Share pin to friend
Step 4. Drive
