Developer’s description: iCurfew is an easy way for kids and parents to check in with each other remotely. Kids use iCurfew to send a link to a Google map that uses GPS to indicate their exact location. Kids can then add a message like “Running late” or “Ready to be picked up.” At the movies, at a friend’s house, or across the world, kids can stay in touch with worried parents.  Mom and Dad will worry less if the kids’ coordinates are being updated, especially since iCurfew verifies real-time location with an un-editable link

Pros: Unobtrusive.

Cons: Whatever happened to trust?

The Top 10 appear before a live voting audience at CES to determine an event winner.
