Capabilities
Everything you need to stay connected to the people and places that matter.
Daddy bundles live tracking, smart geofencing and a rich map experience into a single Telegram bot. No extra app to install, no new account to create.
Your circle, your rules
Approve watchers by Telegram ID, assign them friendly nicknames, and revoke access at any moment. You stay in full control of who sees your data.
Smart inactivity alerts
Pick the silence window that worries you — from 2 minutes to an hour. Daddy pings you the moment a watched person goes dark or comes back online.
Entry zones
Drop pins for the places that matter. Get notified the second a watched person arrives at school, the office, or your weekend cabin.
Presence zones
Set "home" or "safe" areas and receive a heads-up when someone leaves or stays away longer than expected.
Common zones for everyone
Define a zone once and it applies to every watched person. Less repetition, more signal, fewer noisy notifications.
Interactive history map
Replay any day as an animated route. Filter by date, measure total distance, see average speed and export the whole trip to CSV or Excel.
Privacy-first by design
Nothing is public. Daddy only shows your location to the watchers you explicitly approve — and you can ban, unban or unsubscribe in one tap.
Multi-language interface
English, Spanish, Portuguese and Russian out of the box. The whole bot, the help center and error messages follow your choice.
Custom nicknames
Replace numeric IDs with the names you actually use. "Mom", "Bike", "Work van" — whatever makes the bot feel like yours.
Per-user timezone
Set the timezone that fits you and every timestamp in the map, in the alerts and in exports will line up with your local clock.
Telegram channels for alerts
Mirror every entry, exit and presence alert to a Telegram channel you own. Up to 5 channels, per-watcher assignment, automatic admin-rights checks.
Built right inside Telegram
No separate sign-up. No second app. Open Daddy, send your location, invite the people you trust.
Open in TelegramHow it works
Up and running in three short steps.
-
1
Open the bot
Tap the Telegram button and start a chat with Daddy. Pick the language that feels natural — you can change it later from the Settings menu.
-
2
Share your live location
Use Telegram's standard broadcast: tap the clip, choose Location, and broadcast "Until I turn off". Daddy starts building your trail in the background.
-
3
Invite the people you trust
Share your ID, accept watchers by ID, set up entry and presence zones, fine-tune alerts. Everything lives in a single, tidy bot conversation.
Invite Links
Share your link, gain watchers automatically
Generate a personal invite link and share it with anyone you want to watch over you. When they open the link and start the bot, they automatically become your watcher — no ID exchange needed. You stay in full control and can remove them anytime.
Web App
A full map experience without leaving Telegram.
Open the Web App from any chat with Daddy and get an interactive map of every move — yours and the people you watch. Filter by date, replay the day as a smooth animation, measure distance and speed, then export the data if you want to dig deeper.
- Pinpoints for every recorded position
- Date filters and animated route playback
- Total distance and average speed
- CSV and Excel exports
- Zone management with a tap on the map
- Per-user notification controls
Notification Channels
Send watched-user alerts straight to your Telegram channels.
Add up to 5 Telegram channels where Daddy will mirror the same alerts you already receive in private — handy for team workflows, family group logs or public dashboards. Your private notifications keep flowing unchanged; the channel is an addition, not a replacement.
-
Mirror alerts to channels
Every entry, exit, presence and inactivity event you already get in private is also published to the channel you pick for that watched user — automatically, in the same language.
-
One verification per channel
Daddy confirms that the channel exists, that the bot is an administrator and that it can post messages. If anything changes, the channel is marked as broken and you get a heads-up in private.
-
Public, private and invite links
Add a channel by @username, a t.me link, a private invite (t.me/+XXXXX) or a numeric chat_id. Daddy normalises them and verifies access in one step.
-
Per-watcher assignment
In the notification settings of each watched user, choose which channel — if any — should mirror their events. One channel can serve many watchers; each watcher can route to a different channel.
-
Up to 5 channels per account
Keep up to 5 active channels at the same time. Remove an old one to free a slot — bindings to watched users are reset automatically, no manual cleanup required.
-
1
Create or pick a channel
Open Telegram and create a new channel (or use one you already own). You stay the owner — Daddy only posts on your behalf.
-
2
Add the bot as administrator
Promote the Daddy bot to channel administrator with the "post messages" right. The bot never reads your other chats — only the channels you explicitly bind.
-
3
Open "Notification Channels" in the bot
Tap "📢 Notification Channels" in the main menu, then "Add channel". Send the bot the channel reference — @username, t.me link, private invite or chat_id.
-
4
Assign a channel to a watched user
Open "🔭 Watching", pick a user, and choose the channel in their notification settings. From now on, every event for that user is also published to the channel.

Monitoring Zones & Routes
Turn the places and paths that matter into smart alerts.
Drop pins for the places you care about and sketch the routes people actually take. Daddy watches every move and pings you the moment a watched user enters a zone, leaves a zone, drifts off a route or gets back on it — even if they are 5 km away from home or halfway across town.
-
Up to 25 named zones per user
Drop a pin, pick a radius from 100 m to 5 km, and give the zone a name — Home, School, Office, the gym, the dacha. Get a separate entry, exit or both-way alert for every single one.
-
Up to 10 corridor routes per user
Sketch the way people actually travel — 2 to 20 waypoints per route, corridor width from 20 m to 200 m. Daddy alerts you the moment they step off the path or get back on it.
-
Common zones & routes for everyone
Define a zone or a route once and it applies to every watched user at once. No more rebuilding the same geofence for each family member or teammate — less repetition, fewer notifications to manage.
-
Per-zone & per-route toggles
Mute the noisy ones, keep the important ones loud. Switch a zone to "entry only", a route to "exit only", or pause alerts for a season — all from the same panel, no extra setup.
-
Rich alert messages
Every alert carries the zone or route name, time spent inside, distance from the corridor, current coordinates and a reverse-geocoded address — so you know exactly what happened and where, in your language.
-
Plays nicely with channels
Mirror every entry, exit and route-deviation event to a Telegram channel — perfect for family group logs, fleet dashboards or any shared workflow you already use.
-
1
Open a watched user's notifications
In the Web App, open "🔔 Notifications" for the user you want to monitor. Scroll to the "Monitoring zones" or "Monitoring routes" block.
-
2
Drop pins or click the map
Tap the map to drop a zone or place waypoints for a route. Choose a radius (zones) or a corridor width (routes) and give the new item a friendly name.
-
3
Pick the alert type
For each zone: entry only, exit only or both. For each route: deviation only, return only or both. Toggle everything off in one tap when you need quiet time.
-
4
Receive alerts in private & channels
Get a clear message the second something happens — with coordinates, time-in-zone and an address. Optionally mirror everything to a Telegram channel.

Privacy & control
Your location, your rules.
Daddy is built around the principle that location data is personal. Every feature has a clear, accessible off switch — and a clean way to manage who can see what.
Explicit watcher list
No one sees your data until you approve their Telegram ID. Adding or removing a watcher is a single message away.
Unsubscribe anytime
If someone added you as a watcher, you can walk away with one tap. No questions, no friction.
Ban & unban
Block unwanted watchers completely. Their future attempts are recorded, and you can lift the ban whenever you change your mind.
Stop broadcasting
Pause sharing in one tap from Telegram. Daddy stops recording instantly — your history remains yours, but no new points are added.
FAQ
Answers to the most common questions.
How often does Daddy record my location?
Daddy polls your GPS every 25–50 seconds while live broadcasting is active. You control when sharing starts and stops — it's just a Telegram broadcast under the hood.
Do I need a new account or a separate app?
No. Daddy lives inside Telegram. Open the bot, send your location, and you're set. The map experience runs as a Telegram Web App — no extra installs.
Who can see my location?
Only the watchers you explicitly approve. By default, nobody else. You can add or remove watchers, ban unwanted contacts, and unsubscribe from anyone who added you.
What are entry and presence zones?
Entry zones send a notification when a watched person arrives at a place you care about. Presence zones monitor time spent in or away from a place and can alert you when someone leaves.
Can I share with a whole group at once?
Use common zones. Define a zone once and it applies to every watched person, so the whole group is notified about the same places without extra setup.
Which languages are supported?
English, Spanish, Portuguese and Russian. The whole bot, the help section and error messages follow the language you select in Settings.
Can I export my data?
Yes. From the Web App, export any selected period as CSV or as a formatted Excel report straight to your Telegram chat.
How do I get help if something goes wrong?
Open the Help section in the bot menu to read step-by-step instructions, or use the Support option to send a message directly to the Daddy team.
How do I share my route or live broadcast with someone who doesn't use Daddy?
Open the Web App — for a route, load it on the map; for a live broadcast, tap Start broadcast. Then tap Share and Daddy gives you a short public link. Send it to anyone — they open it in a regular browser and see either your route or your live position updating on the map in real time, with no sign-up, no app install and no Telegram account required.
How long does a shared link stay alive?
You choose the lifetime when creating the link. Route links live from 1 day up to 90 days (3 months). Broadcast links live from 1 hour up to 7 days, and you can also stop a broadcast manually at any moment from My Publications. Every link stops working automatically when it expires, and you can revoke it manually any time too.
Can I send location alerts to a Telegram channel?
Yes. Add up to 5 channels from "📢 Notification Channels" in the bot menu or from the Web App, then assign a channel in the notification settings of the watched user. Every entry, exit, presence and inactivity alert for that user will also be published to the chosen channel — your private notifications keep coming unchanged.
What does the bot need to publish in my channel?
The bot must be a channel administrator with the right to post messages. Daddy verifies this when you add the channel and re-checks automatically. If the bot ever loses admin rights, the channel is marked as broken, you are notified in private, and no further alerts are published there until you fix the rights or pick a different channel.
What is a monitoring zone?
A monitoring zone is a circular geofence on the map. You pick a center point and a radius (from 100 m up to 5 km), give it a name like Home or School, and Daddy alerts you the moment a watched user enters or leaves that circle. Each watched user can have up to 25 personal zones plus 25 common zones shared across everyone.
What is a monitoring route?
A monitoring route is a corridor you draw on the map by placing 2 to 20 waypoints. You pick a corridor width (from 20 m up to 200 m) and Daddy alerts you the moment a watched user drifts off the path or gets back on it. Each watched user can have up to 10 personal routes plus 10 common routes shared with everyone.
