was asked to reconfigure, but it didn’t work
A change (hopefully a solution) is in the works. Stay tuned. Still would be good to get as many votes as possible. Who knows, even with a fix, how long it will continue to work.

@pnbruckner Keep up the hard work my friend! Been using this plus your composite tracker for a long time. Tried all the others but none have worked as damn near flawless as you can get except for your work. Thank you sir 
Life360 and Tile trackers are one in the same. I’d have to bet the Tile integration stops working soon too.
Same thing here. Just to keep up the votes. I also logged out and then logged into life360 app on my phone. I did notice one change. They changed their password requirement. My old password consisted of 6 lower case letters and 4 numbers. They now require a minimum of 8 characters and must include at least 1 letter, 1 number, and 1 symbol (ie “$”, “@”, etc).
My old password already met their requirements (even though I did recently change it just to see if it helped.)
FWIW, a temporary fix is available. See: Life360 Device Tracker Platform - Third party integrations - Home Assistant Community (home-assistant.io)

Had a worrying response from Life360 this morning. I still cant authenticate, even with the new workaround. For me, this journey is finished. Need to look at other solutions.
We understand the importance of using the Home Assistant program with Life360. However, we want to inform you that we no longer support home automation programs such as Home Assistant, Google Home, Alexa, IFTTT, and others, and these programs are no longer compatible with Life360.
Currently, we have no plans to reintroduce compatibility with these programs. Nonetheless, we appreciate your feedback on this matter, and I will share it with the appropriate team.
I know one of the founders next time I see him i will talk to him about it.

I have installed the traccar add-on from the Community Add-ons and tracker client in my phones that do not run the HA app.
I now have a local solution running inside my HA instance. I needed to open another port, but that is the only mark against it so far.
If there is a way to run this using the nabu-casa url, then that is also taken care of. I had the ports open already anyway, so I just opened another. NBD for me. The phones that I’m running HA anyway, I track off that.

Thank God, with today’s update the Life360 issue has been resolved. 
Not for me - still unauthorised 
Been waiting all week and finally got it today so all automations will hopefully work. But no still same issue still unauthorised.
Read Phil post above. There is a temporary fix for it . You may need to create a folder Life360 inside config.
Temporary fix
I have used the official HA install which is said to have fixed it 2023.12.4. Phil’s fix is
“As an interim fix (i.e., before a HA release that updates to it)”.
The official release in 12.4 is still not working for me… I hit reload and same error
Got it working now:
- Deleted the integration in HA
- Changed the Password
- Adding the integration back in HA

That was a temporary, interim workaround. Do NOT do that with 2023.12.4. Also, if you applied that, or any of the other suggested workarounds, undo them. Then restart HA and try again. If it still doesn’t work, change your life360 password, do NOT verify your phone number if it asks you to, then try again. If it still doesn’t work then I’m stumped.

For some reason, you have to change the password for some accounts, but not for all (I’ve had 2/4). I haven’t found a logical explanation.
Resetting the password from the web page doesn’t work (Life360 Member Login). The e-mail address is not recognized.
You have to do it on the phone by entering the old and new passwords.
And then with 2023.12.4 it works fine (provided you’ve removed all traces of custom applications).
You can do that here:
https://www.life360.com/forgot-password
You’ll need to click the “Search by email” link just below the phone number box.
The only explanation I can think of based on what I’ve heard is that once you verify your phone number (when the Life360 app prompts you to do so), you can’t use the HA integration anymore. You’ll need to change your password again (at least), and do not verify your phone number, or maybe? figure out how to “un” verify it???
Obviously, Life360 stopped working at this point. I did try to replace with OwnTrack, but this app working terrible for me. Did not update location so fast, wrong locations and so on. Including draining the battery. As we know, native HA integration , also not working so good. So, the question is - what alternative we can use. I have a lot of automations, which are related with me and my family members (all on Android devices).
