A free app for Android, by HobbySoft.
The Track Me Now. Beacon app is an application for tracking a person or a group of people, where you can see the current location of each of them on a map and send notifications to them. The application is useful for friends and relatives to know where the other one is or to see where they are at any time. To use the application you need an internet connection and an open sky.
When you press the "START" button, you can send an SMS message with a link to the tracking code to the selected recipients. The recipients will automatically install and run the same app on their phones. They will then see your location pointed with a marker on the map. The location of the marker will move with you, and they will be notified about your current location. After that, you can see the position of each of the tracked people on a map.
If you turn off the tracking mode, the location of the marker will stop updating. The Track Me Now. Beacon app will then work like a regular location tracker, and the user will no longer be notified about the movement of the marker.
