We go out in search of the offender.

I think sometimes you have had situations when you needed to find out the location of a person, if suddenly he stopped answering calls or messages. And even if the smartphone is dead, it would be useful to know where the person was last. There are various solutions to this problem, but today you will learn how to do it using Google Maps.

Instructions
Google Maps has a built-in feature that lets you share your location with your favorite contacts. This feature is available on both Android and iPhone. The main thing is that GPS is enabled on the device.

To do this, go to the application and turn on the transfer of geodata. On Android, this can be done through the hamburger menu, and on iOS, through the menu that appears after clicking on the dot with the mark of your current location.

Then you need to specify the contacts to whom you would like to provide data about your location by selecting his phone number or email address. In this case, the contact to whom you provide access will receive a notification by SMS or e-mail. There is also an important point here that if you want data to be transmitted constantly, you will have to do this operation every three days. Inconvenient, but not particularly troublesome.

The main condition for such surveillance is that the person whose movements you want to monitor must agree that this monitoring is being carried out for him, otherwise the person can simply open Google Maps and remove your access to his movements.

That's all. I hope you enjoyed the article and found the information useful.
