Place Alerts
A Snapchat Family Center feature that notifies a parent when their teen arrives at or leaves up to three saved locations (home, school, gym). Both arrival and departure trigger an alert.
How kids use it
Requires the teen to share their location first — it's off by default. Useful for confirming they got to school or home, not for continuous tracking.
