Built into iOS. It’s called “Find my Friends”. You can (temporarily) share your location with other iOS users. For example, if you’re going to a festival with friends you can set it to share locations for the duration of the event so you can always see where they are. You an also choose to permanently share your location with family members.
iphones let people share location with other iphones. I know some of friends that do. Google maps and Apple maps, and Whatsapp also have live location sharing (occasionally useful).
WA location sharing (at least on Android) sucks ass though. They haven’t properly implemented the notification Android requires apps to give for background location access, so it exclusively works if WA is running in the foreground. It just stops updating if the person sharing locks their phone or closes WhatsApp.
Google Maps sharing is much better it also allows you to select any time limit in 1 hour steps, or permanently (until it’s turned off again), instead of the WA presets of ¼, 1 or 8 hours.
“your location” ? how does she know his location ? is there an app to track people in realtime ?
You can live location share with google maps, you can do it for a set amount of time or until you turn it off again.
Wouldn’t be the weirdest thing for spouses to have it permanently turned on for each other.
Yes, the thing tracking and reporting your location at all times is called the wireless telephone network.
Some apps let you share what you’re already sharing with Palantir and ICE with your friends.

I know tons of couples that use apps that let them look up each other’s location.
