Family Locator & Friend Tracker by Reaching Soon is a simple 2-way GPS location sharing app. It helps you accurately locate your loved ones, track their GPS location and share your location with them whenever you need. You can locate your friends even if they don't have Family Locator app; they can use browser to share location with you and see yours too. .

Note- You share your location temporarily with your trusted contacts, and they share theirs with you during the same time. It's NOT a spying app, nor meant to watch someone 24X7. It's a location sharing app that is built on trust, to be used with people you trust!


When to use our Family Locator & Friend Tracker:-
1. A family member is reaching home late and you are concerned - or - you are arriving late and your family members are anxious.
2. Expecting guests at home, and you want to know when they would arrive.
3. Meetup with your buddies for an event such as cinema, concert, game or dinner. The habitual late comers cannot give lame excuses.
4. Meeting a stranger - to keep a trusted friend aware of your whereabouts.
5. While touring/ hiking/ biking with a group, staying connected with the group members.
6. When you need to request location of someone RIGHT NOW, when they do not have the app.
7. To Coordinate pickup at a busy location without having to call each other. Track each other and sync your arrival as you cannot wait at the pick-up point.

And many more use cases from your daily life when you need to ask someone "where are you".



Family Locator makes location sharing ultra-simple.

Family Locator doesn't require any annoying signup process. Simply follow two steps to share GPS location:
1. Request location from your friends / family members by sending a unique URL. You may use SMS or any messaging app. You will be notified once they accept.
2. Set destination for the session. It can be your location (if others are visiting you) or that of the other person (if you are visiting), or simply a point on the Map. The app will tell every person's real time location and time of arrival.

That's it! You and your friends/family members can track each other in real time. Your app will share your location and time to destination, helping each-other rid your anxiety.


Location sharing using browser

Your friends need not download Family Locator & Friend Tracker app right when you send them request URL. Instead they can open the URL in a browser and share location back. Of course, the app better than browser because it updates location faster, has more features and offers better battery performance.


Excellent battery conservation

Reaching Soon technology is up to five times more battery efficient compared to some of the leading location tracker apps. It works well on low bandwidth (2G) network. Simply said - Family Locator & Friend Tracker is your perfect companion in daily commute as well as in long journeys.


Temporary Location Tracking - NO 24X7 watch or spying on you!

Family Locator & Friend Tracker is a temporary location sharing app, NOT a 24X7 location tracker. We protect your privacy! The tracking ends when you leave the session voluntarily or all members reach destination.


CAUTION: Share location only with people you trust

Family Locator & Friend Tracker by Reaching Soon uses encrypted channel (SSL) to communicate your location. However you must observe caution. Share the link ONLY with those you trust. Posting your link on public pages would expose your location to strangers. We strongly recommend that you only use private messages to send location requests.
