You can use the app in different situations:
- Track a phone when it is lost or stolen
- Track you love ones if you are concerned about their well-being
- Ensure that your friends are already on their way to you and so skip unnecessary
phone calls
- We all have been in a situation when we forget where we left our phones. The best
thing you can do is take anyone else’s phone and give yourself a call. What if your
phone is on silent mode?
- We can easily lock our phone via SMS if we forget.




This application allows you to track Android smartphones by using SMS for transmitting the location. You can track a phone even if the Internet connection is off and so ensure continuous “trackability”.




Important Note:---!!!! Be aware that SMS costs will accrue if your mobile tariff doesn’t include free SMS. !!!!



!!!You can only track people when they also have installed this application on their phones!!!


SMS Keywords(send this keyword to receiver phone):
For getting location: Where are you???
For Ringing Mode : Please ring my phone!!!

How does “LocateOffline” work?

Situation: Person A wants to track person B
Track Request: Person A sends a track request to person B. The app prepares, in the background, a specific SMS (track request) and sends it to person B.
Track Respond: Person B receives the SMS, without showing up in the usual SMS app, and starts the locating. After few seconds the location of person B is obtained and sent back to person A in form of an SMS.
Location found: Person A receives that SMS and shows the received coordinates in a map view.
