    If you have to have someone's permission to track their phone, there's no way they're not going to know you're doing so. They'll just assume you're doing it all the time. Kinda defeats the whole purpose.

      This is indeed a scary video...who is that creepy and obssessed with the location of another that they would track them in secret? One of the comments point out the need for consent. That is worth consideration. Even if it is a romantic partner, most laws say it is illegal to intercept information from a cellphone without the permission of the person who is targeted.

    You are right! Some kid stole my phone (he said he was locked out of our apartment buulding and had to call his mom, so I let him use my cell and he ran), and I was able to track him through my daughter's cell phone. I tracked gum gor 3 hours, and got to gis house with the police on my tail for him when he finally stopped going to different places. I was shocked to get my phone back after that many hours. A d he lucked out because I canceled the police as soon as I got it back, which got him off the hook. I am VERY grateful we can track phones like this. And I now know not to just let anyone use my phone; I could have just made the call for hum had it been a real lockout.

    At 2:45 you say that the phone of the person being tracked is never notified.
    But at 3:10 you say that with a filter on the email notification, the notification will end up in the trash.
    So, a notification WILL sent (and repeated periodically as a reminder)
    So the correct wording would be: The person who is tracked cannot is never notified....UNDER SPECIFIC CONDITIONS.

    what if we turn off the location in our mobile which is in the notification bar and didn't turn off through maps ? will it still show your location to others?

    Is there a way to snap to the location of the phone you are tracking or do you just zoom in and out and try to find it?

    I'm glad we didn't have this technology when I was a teenager. My parents didn't trust me and would have tracked my every move.

    I'm confused bc every time I do the first steps that are instructed, I automatically get a notification that says they will receive a link to see my location. I can't afford to have my location exposed for my safety.

    I hate click bait titles. Obviously they are going to know you're doing something since you have to ask for their phone to make these changes.

      oh Jennifer - you really think that if you partner wants to have access to your phone there isn't a single opportunity for them to get it without you knowing?
      seriously 🤦‍♂️

    When you do this does it also share your info with the person you are tracking?
