The Life360 lawsuit search covers several separate cases about how the family location app handles location data and how its Tile trackers can be misused. A 2023 class action claimed Life360 sold users’ location data without consent, but it was voluntarily dismissed. A separate 2023 lawsuit claims Tile trackers, owned by Life360, were used for stalking; in March 2026, a federal appeals court sent some of those claims to private arbitration. Life360 has also been named in a Texas lawsuit against Allstate, though it is not a defendant. There is no Life360 settlement to claim as of October 2026. Here is what each case alleges and where it stands.

What is Life360?
Life360 is a location-sharing app based in San Mateo, California, used mostly by families to see where members are. In a deal announced in November 2021, Life360 acquired Tile, which makes small Bluetooth trackers that attach to keys, bags and other items. Because both products depend on location data, most Life360 lawsuits involve privacy or safety.
The location data class action
The first Life360 lawsuit followed a December 2021 report by The Markup that said Life360 sold precise location data to data brokers. Life360 later said it would limit those sales.
On January 12, 2023, a minor identified as E.S. filed a proposed class action, E.S. v. Life360 Inc., Case No. 4:23-cv-00168, in federal court in Northern California. As ClassAction.org reported, the complaint alleged that Life360 sold users’ geolocation data to data brokers, including SafeGraph, Arity, Cuebiq and X-Mode, without consent.
The plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the case on November 3, 2023. No class was certified, no court ruled on the claims, and no settlement was announced.
The Tile stalking lawsuit
In August 2023, Shannon and Stephanie Ireland-Gordy filed a proposed class action, Ireland-Gordy v. Tile, Inc., Case No. 3:23-cv-04119, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. Other plaintiffs later joined. The defendants are Tile, Life360 and Amazon, which sold Tile devices.
What the lawsuit alleges
- Tile trackers were used by others to secretly follow the plaintiffs.
- Tile was slow to add anti-stalking safety features and let owners turn one of them off.
- The companies were negligent and their products were defectively designed.
These are allegations. Life360 has said that using a Tile to track someone without their knowledge violates its terms of service and that it works with law enforcement.
The March 2026 arbitration ruling
Tile and Life360 asked the court to send the claims to arbitration under Tile’s updated October 2023 terms of service. The district court agreed only in part. On March 3, 2026, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed that ruling for two plaintiffs, finding they had received notice of the updated terms and accepted them by continuing to use the app. Their claims now go to individual arbitration. The ruling did not decide whether the stalking claims are true, and it did not address the original named plaintiffs, who were not part of that appeal.
Texas lawsuit against Allstate and Arity
On January 13, 2025, the Texas Attorney General sued Allstate and its subsidiary Arity, alleging they collected driving data from more than 45 million Americans through software embedded in other companies’ apps and used it for insurance purposes. The state named Life360 as one of the apps that carried Arity’s software. Life360 is not a defendant in that case, and the claims against Allstate and Arity have not been proven.
Is the Life360 lawsuit a class action?
Some cases were filed as proposed class actions, but no class has been certified in any Life360 case we found. The data sale case was dismissed, and the arbitration ruling in the Tile case means at least some plaintiffs must pursue their claims individually.
Is there a Life360 settlement?
No. As of October 2026, we found no Life360 class action settlement and no claim form. Be careful with websites that promise a “Life360 payout” without an official, court-approved settlement website.
What Life360 and Tile users should know
- Review your privacy settings. Life360 says users can opt out of the sale of their data, including aggregated data, in the app’s privacy settings.
- Check for unknown trackers. Tile’s “Scan and Secure” feature and similar tools on iPhone and Android can help detect trackers you do not own.
- Get help if you feel unsafe. Report suspected stalking to local police, and save screenshots and dates.
- Read the terms. Life360 and Tile terms include arbitration clauses that affect how disputes are handled.
Your rights depend on your specific facts and the law. A licensed attorney can tell you whether you have a claim. For another app privacy case, see our Venmo class action lawsuit explainer.
