MapsToMe is a free Android app to share your location with anyone. The best part is that you can share the location with anyone, even if they don’t have this app, and even if they are not on Android. As long as the other user has internet, you can share your location with him, in a single click.
The app does not even need any sign-up. Just launch the app and share your location with anyone. You can choose to share your location by using any of the third party apps like Facebook, WhatsApp, Hike, Twitter, etc.. and even native text messaging app of your Android smartphone.
How to Share Your Current Location with Anyone on Android:
As I said, this app doesn’t require any sign-up or details of any kind from you, so just install it and follow below mentioned steps.
- Launch MapsToMe Android app on your Android phone to see your current location.
