Share location in real time with Google Maps’ new feature

< 1 Minute Read

Google Maps has added a new feature that will reveal your real-time location to your contacts.
The feature can help users in fixing up meetings, and sharing their whereabouts just by sending a link.

This link will be generated by enabling the location-sharing feature by tapping on a blue dot that represents where you are.

However, a bit of concern for users is that strangers track your real-time location for days at a time.

Despite that, the company insists that users will have total control and can turn the feature off at any time.
