HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (0.2 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Slow, laggy, battery5%

8 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Devs, please fix - the Namola Plus tab takes way too long to load, and while it's loading it blocks any other activity.
★★★★★ It also logs you out alot, and revert back to 'high accuracy' tracking that drains battery like a thieve.
★★★★★ Disappointed with Reliability, while the concept of Namola is fantastic - the app unfortunately falls short in its execution: Excessive Battery Drain, Constant Login Requests, Unreliable Live Location.

★★★★★Sep 30, 2026

2x Namola came to our aid during medical emergencies - stellar response. However, absolute nightmare to get things set up if phone number has changed. Battled for 1.5 hours to set up on my elderly mother's new phone (we've been on a couple's subscription). Person who responded on the SOS Test (why on chat these days?) wasn't of much help & said someone would phone. Next, my account was no longer recognised. Gave up waiting - it was time sensitive - and took out a 2nd subscription.

★★★★★Sep 16, 2026

Not able to install/login tol the App on my new phone. Getting an error: error says unable to complete your request at this time please try again later. Tried numerous times on different days.

★★★★★Sep 15, 2026

They saved me when someone tried to break into the house through the roof.

What's new in 9.10.14

Your Safety Devices now show the real battery level and percentage even when offline, plus when each was last seen. Smart Safety Alerts help you look out for yourself and the people you care about. Namola alerts you only when the safety context meaningfully changes, like moving into a lower Safety Score area or staying there, and you can set how sensitive the alerts are so you get the heads-up that matters without the noise. Minor issues fixed and performance improved.
