Starting tomorrow, parents can now use Sprint Family Locator, including recent enhancements, for just $5 per month. A great tool for peace of mind during trick-or-treating, Sprint Family Locator allows parents to log in on any Web-enabled Sprint phone or a computer to use GPS to see their child's location on an interactive map, even when the child is using their phone to make a call or send a text.

"Sprint has always been proud to offer the wireless family locator service with the most compatible phones and fewest plan limitations, and now we've made Sprint Family Locator the least expensive in the industry, so even more families can use this valuable tool," said Len Barlik, vice president of wireless and wireline services for Sprint. "With enhanced features and a lower price, families can take advantage of Sprint Family Locator on the Now Network this Halloween and beyond. Since becoming the first carrier to offer a GPS family locator service in 2006, we've been happy to continuously expand the functionality of Sprint Family Locator and see usage of the service continue to grow."

During the past four months, Sprint Family Locator users made an average of more than 3 million location requests through the service, including more than 3.5 million in September alone. Existing Sprint Family Locator subscribers will automatically receive the new $5 per month price, starting with their first billing cycle after Oct. 30.
