What’s New Version 1.0.19

Shared-location maps now show each person's profile photo as their map pin, so you can tell who's who at a glance. Plus background-location reliability improvements and fixes.

Description

Sanka — Family Safety & Location Sharing Stay connected with the people who matter most. Sanka makes it simple to share your live location, send instant SOS alerts, and chat privately with family and close friends — all in one beautifully designed app. Whether your kids are walking home from school, your partner is on a late commute, or your parents are traveling, Sanka gives everyone peace of mind. LIVE LOCATION SHARING See where your loved ones are in real time on a shared map. Choose who to follow, and decide who can see you. No awkward check-ins, no "where are you?" texts. SOS EMERGENCY ALERTS Trigger an SOS with one tap — or let Sanka detect it automatically with built-in crash detection. Your emergency contacts get a full-screen alert, your live location streams to them for an hour, and the alert breaks through silent mode and Do Not Disturb so it actually gets seen. FAMILY & FRIEND CIRCLES Organize the people you care about into three simple circles: Family, Friends, and Everyone. Set who sees what, and adjust anytime. PRIVATE GROUP CHAT Message individuals or groups, share photos, react with emojis, and send the SANKA keyword in any chat to instantly request someone's live location. VOICE & VIDEO CALLS High-quality voice and video calls built right in — no need for a separate app. WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE SANKA Free to use, with optional premium features Privacy-first: you control who sees you, always Works globally — available in 177 countries Designed for peace of mind, not surveillance Download Sanka today and give your family the gift of staying close, no matter the distance.

Build 887844895v1.0.192026-07-05 20:26:48
Shared-location maps now show each person's profile photo as their map pin, so you can tell who's who at a glance. Plus background-location reliability improvements and fixes.
Build 887620311v1.0.182026-06-30 22:54:01
When you SANKA someone whose phone has gone quiet — dead battery, airplane mode, or out of coverage — Sanka now shows a fresher last-known location and gives their phone time to reconnect and reply with its live spot before reporting them offline. Fewer "offline" surprises, more accurate answers. We've also made background location replies more dependable on iPhone, plus behind-the-scenes fixes and a warmer welcome for new members.
Build 887568231v1.0.172026-06-29 16:34:57
Stability improvements and bug fixes. Fixed an issue that could occasionally sign you out unexpectedly, and improved background location so your SANKA check-ins are more reliable.
Build 886932480v1.0.162026-06-14 17:03:09
Smarter crash detection — no more false alarms. Automatic crash detection now confirms you're in a moving vehicle before sounding the alarm, so everyday bumps like dropping your phone no longer trigger a false SOS. Real accidents are caught just as reliably.
Build 886796683v1.0.152026-06-10 22:20:44
• Improved automatic accident detection — more reliable at catching real impacts while ignoring everyday bumps like setting your phone down or dropping it. • Fixed the SOS countdown screen so the "I'm OK — Cancel" button is always fully visible, including in landscape. • Stability improvements.
Build 886710315v1.0.142026-06-09 16:45:11
• Smarter crash & fall detection — SOS now reliably triggers on a real drop or fall but ignores everyday handling like setting your phone down, so you get far fewer false alarms. • Apple Sign-In: if you chose "Hide My Email," Sanka now asks for your name so friends see who you are instead of a long private email address. • Reliability improvements.
Build 886590597v1.0.122026-06-06 16:47:10
• Email verification fixed — the verification link no longer expires before you can tap it, and the app now takes you in automatically once you're verified. • SANKA shows a single live map — no more duplicate "offline" card stacking on top of someone's live location. • Safer SOS — accident & fall detection stays sensitive so a real emergency isn't missed, and there's now a clear full-screen "I'M OKAY — CANCEL" button so false alarms are easy to dismiss. • Fewer missed calls & alerts — if your battery settings could silence incoming calls or SOS alerts, the app now warns you with a one-tap fix. • Reliability improvements for calls, notifications, and live location.
Build 886491566v1.0.112026-06-03 20:51:07
Live location, improved. Continuous Tracking: Maps now follow you in real-time—no more stuck pins. Offline Visibility: See the last known location and timestamp when a user's phone goes offline. Streamlined UI: Each location request now displays on a single, clean map. Discreet Requests: Your requests stay perfectly private if someone hasn't shared their location with you. Performance: General reliability and stability upgrades.
Build 886402597v1.0.102026-06-02 16:04:45
More reliable location sharing. 1. SANKA now shows a single, up-to-date map per person — no more duplicate or conflicting location cards. 2. Clearer status when someone's unreachable ("currently offline · last known location"). 3. Fixes a case where Android users who allowed location only "While Using" weren't prompted to switch to "Always," which could make them wrongly appear offline.
Build 886311312v1.0.82026-05-30 16:31:11
1. SANKA when someone isn't sharing SANKA a friend who has location sharing turned off. You should see one message — "[Name]'s location is not available" — and no map. (Before, it showed two conflicting messages like "not sharing" + "not available.") 2. Notifications follow your phone's settings Chat and call notification sound/vibration now follow your iPhone's own notification settings — there are no in-app sound/vibration toggles anymore. Adjust them in iOS Settings → Notifications → Sanka. Please confirm chat and call alerts behave the way your phone is configured. 3. Simpler Settings screen Settings is trimmed down (no more Location Privacy, Sanka Auto-Reply, or notification toggles). Your single "Share my location" switch now lives on your Profile. Confirm it still turns sharing on/off. 4. Guardian & Child Monitoring Set up a guardian on one device, accept on the child device. Confirm: the child cannot hide their location from the guardian (the per-friend toggle is locked), and the guardian can always see the child's location. The guardian can still remove monitoring anytime. 5. Calls Incoming calls should ring reliably — including right after a previous call. A call should survive leaving the call screen (mini in-app view).
Build 886264080v1.0.72026-05-29 15:59:52
- Chat notification sound on iPhone — chat notifications now actually play a sound + vibrate. They were silent before (the criticalAlert permission bug). - Group map card name/location fix — fixed the glitch where two live-location cards in a group could briefly show the same person's name with different locations before self-correcting.
Build 886225244v1.0.62026-05-28 16:56:07
• Incoming calls now ring reliably, and calls keep going when you minimize the app (picture-in-picture) • Sankayo: when a friend is offline, see their last known location on a map • New Guardian request prompt + banner so you never miss one • Friends now match by phone number; dismiss invite suggestions you don't want • Clearer SANKA status messages, and no more duplicate map cards • SOS, notification reliability, and dark-mode fixes
Build 886174386v1.0.52026-05-27 15:08:38
Calls now keep running when you leave the call screen — multitask or check your chats mid-call with Picture-in-Picture, no dropped calls. SANKA can now reach people who are offline: see their last known location on the map, with how long ago it was reported. (Sankayo) Sending SANKA in a group now shows which members you're not following, so you know who can be reached. Fixed in-call chat being hard to read in dark mode. Privacy and reliability improvements.
Build 886066916v1.0.32026-05-25 00:12:10
More private location sharing. You control who can see you and who you can see. Fixed an issue where new message notifications did not appear. More reliable incoming calls. Improved SOS alerts. Added a confirmation before signing out.
Build 886084482v1.0.42026-05-25 18:11:56
• SANKA now tells you when someone in a chat can't be located because you're not following them yet — so you know exactly who to add. • Find friends already on Sanka by phone number, not just email. • Clean up your invite list — hide any contact you don't want to see. • The 48-hour follow cooldown now works per person, so changing one follow no longer locks your other slots. • Reliability and stability improvements.
Build 886038456v1.0.22026-05-23 21:34:42
Reliability: • Incoming calls now ring reliably even when SANKA has been closed or your phone has been idle. • Push notifications (chat, alerts, SOS, SANKA pings) delivered more reliably.
Build 885991546v1.0.12026-05-22 20:02:58
Small fix: when you accept a friend request, your new friend now shows up in your Friends list right away. Thanks for the feedback!
