Locate your family members & friends using text messages (SMS).

All location tracking requests are processed, displayed and stored on your local device (using Google Maps and SMS feature). There is no any third party server between you and another person you are tracking location via this app. All the communications are between you and your family member that you have allowed to track you using this app (via SMS).

Please ensure this app is installed on both sides.

Features
• It will still work even if there is no any internet on the other person's device you are locating (as long as GPS is enabled on their device)

• Ideal to locate Elders and kids. They don’t need to have an internet but need to install the app and allow you to track them via this app.

• It is ideal to use if the person you are locating is in a limited coverage area (i.e. patchy GPS or Cell Service). When you send request to locate that user, this app will run in the background on their device and wait for the GPS and Cell Service and send you the location whenever it becomes available. So you can send request and sit back. This app will deliver location to you via notification.

• The family member you want to track should exist in your contact book (Security feature)

• The family member you want to track via this app should have your permission to do so and should have app installed on their device as well.

• You can track family member anywhere in the world as long as you can send SMS to them.

• Can see last 5 location history requests per contact (wonder why 5? Everything is stored on your device. More history means, more space will be consumed on your device.)

• You can locate and navigate to that person wherever they are right from this app. Click on their location marker and it will show you the option to navigate to them using Google navigation.

• If you try to locate family member and their device currently is not having GPS turned on, this app will alert them via notification that you want to locate them but your GPS is turned off. The moment they turned on GPS, this app will send the location details to you.

• Please remember, you need an internet only to see the location in the Google Map. If you don’t have an internet, you can still locate other family member and get the location co-ordinates (i.e. longitude, latitude) but you won’t be able to see that on the Google map.
