I wonder if they just updated the token used in their clients (link below).. if so I imagine someone will figure out the new one
I did check the client token in the mobile app when I decompiled that however that's not changed from what I can see (also older versions are still working).
The response is different if the client ID is invalid. But the 403 is generated by cloudflare's WAF unfortunately, at least in our case anyway (Cloudflare Web Application Firewall · Cloudflare Web Application Firewall (WAF) docs)

Me and pnbruckner came to the conclusion that all these responses from Life 360 seem to be a copy and paste job as they follow the exact same wording regardless of application, perhaps they are just adding Hubitat and home assistant together now so they don't have to replace the name of the application lol.

Totally agree about the email... I doubt the CS reps even really know what any of it is -- I think they are just told "copy/paste whatever system name that the client asks about here in this canned response".

Hubitat C8 (current load) log is filled with Life360+ v3.0.25 errors of the form:
errorLife360+: cmdHandler: status:401, resp:hubitat.scheduling.AsyncResponse@ba8918
I'm not finding this error with a web search - any ideas on resolving or other information needed?
Unfortunately, this is a broken integration. I'm not expecting to see a fix. Read recent posts in this topic. Paints a pretty clear picture.
Most Life360+ users are moving on at this point. OwnTracks is looking great so far.

Thanks for that information. I hadn't read broadly enough. Will try out that as my next option.
Not to get off topic. I installed OwnTracks yesterday on my primary hub. And I agree, it's pretty good. I have a second house/hub that I would like to use OT at too. But I am only seeing that the phone can report to one location. Has anyone gotten OT to work on multiple hubs? Basically my phone would report to both hubs.
I would recommend to ask your question in the dedicated OwnTracks forum. There enough people who know the best if something like this is possible.

I have. Cross asking for more coverage, but I realize this isn't the right thread
I can confirm a couple of things, I verified my phone number, and my login would no longer work even with the life360 website. I had to do a password reset to even be able to log in using email. As soon as I did this it shows that the number is not verified anymore again. In any case no matter what state things were in, the HE app would not login anymore.
I can see that was must easier to achieve with Life360 since you could have an instance of the app running on each hub with a different place selected as 'home'. Trouble with this is your phone only reported to one server with Life360 and with OwnTracks it's the same but the server is your hub and as far as I can tell, there can only be one server the app will report to.
Quick idea would be to use rule machine to react to a different region being entered to control a virtual presence sensor for your 2nd home and expose that virtual sensor to the other hub via hub mesh.
EDIT: I linked this to [RELEASE] OwnTracks for Hubitat Presence Detection - #185 by zerosum74 so discussion could be continued there.

I have updated this to 3.0.25 and still unable to login with phone or email. It's looking like this is to be expected at this point and that future success is unlikely?
That said, looking at the installedapp/status shows (what looks to be) current info.
Thank you!

Yes I’d say this is dead unless Life360 has a change of heart.
So how long will my access token keep trucking on? 
I'm hanging on by a thread it seems, but been busy so glad I haven't had to scramble for another solution. Does anyone else know of another solution that provides distance from home like life360 does/did?
Bummer. Well I did just verify that all the presents data is still working for me right now. I can't log back in if I lose this token though. 
What jerks. That's a great way to alienate a notable percentage of their customer base. I could see disallowing free people. But I'm a gold member... I'm PAYING for that API access.

Check out the OwnTracks integration, I believe most of us Life360 users have been switching to that. I am still primarily running Life360 for the time being, but I'm sure once the token expires I'll lose access. I have been getting OwnTracks working in the background, so hopefully I have everything ready and working well before I need to switch.
Dev has been super helpful getting things running well. I know some users (myself included) have been working out the kinks, but the last couple of builds have been much more stable. I had an issue with reporting today, but it turns out it was something on my end. Fixed, and now everything seems to be working well!
EDIT to add: OwnTracks does report distance from home. Default is in meters, but can be switched to imperial if desired

My Life360 has died today
I'm a silver member so will moan at support hopefully, that might do something if enough of us do
I set up Owntracks last week so I was ready but I'm not happy

Mine has also stopped working today - time to look at Owntracks
I feel like I'm in a competition for "last man standing" with a working Life360 connection 
I have OwnTracks up and running now, but I can't just quit the "race" haha
