> I'd feel pretty uncomfortable with a random stranger and his friends showing up to my kid's daycare. I hope the apps have gotten better location filtering in place since 2015.

Wouldn't this be the onus of the daycare? To allow/disallow strangers?

If the app points them to a high-security military installation, they're not going to get in.

Other strangers not using the app can still show up at the daycare...

And presumably as soon as you see it's a day care you can say "neat" and move on to the next location.
