Real-Time Location Sharing
Stay connected with your family and skip the "where are you?" texts — see everyone's location at a glance.

How it works
Install WheresNow, invite your family members by link, and once they accept, you're connected in a private network. Anyone can stop sharing their location at any time with one tap.

Features
⭐ GPS tracking optimized for battery life and accuracy
⭐ Find a lost or misplaced family member's phone
⭐ Works with any mobile network operator
⭐ See each family member's live location and battery level on the map

Privacy first
WheresNow only requests the permissions needed for location tracking — no access to your photos or accounts. The app cannot be installed remotely or secretly; each person must install it themselves and explicitly accept the location-sharing invite. ## Rankings - #2,255,124 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_AD_ID` - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_ATTRIBUTION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_MEDIA_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE` - `android.permission.ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION` - `android.permission.CAMERA` - `android.permission.CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.READ_APP_BADGE` - `android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` - `android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED` - `android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS` - `android.permission.SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM` - `android.permission.USE_BIOMETRIC` - `android.permission.USE_FINGERPRINT` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `com.anddoes.launcher.permission.UPDATE_COUNT` - `com.android.vending.BILLING` - `com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE` - `com.google.android.finsky.permission.BIND_GET_INSTALL_REFERRER_SERVICE` - `com.google.android.gms.permission.ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION` - `com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID` - `com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.UPDATE_SHORTCUT` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.CHANGE_BADGE` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.majeur.launcher.permission.UPDATE_BADGE` - `com.oppo.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.oppo.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.READ` - `com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.WRITE` - `com.sonyericsson.home.permission.BROADCAST_BADGE` - `com.sonymobile.home.permission.PROVIDER_INSERT_BADGE` - `lk.codescale.wheresnow.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` - `me.everything.badger.permission.BADGE_COUNT_READ` - `me.everything.badger.permission.BADGE_COUNT_WRITE` ## Similar extensions and apps - [WheresNow - Live GPS Locator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.axresapps.wheresapplk) — 345,898 users - [WheresApp](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.plestar.wheresapp) — 91 users - [Family Location: Phone Locator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.familylocator.findphonelocator.gpstracker) — 5,289 users - [Live Locator – Family Tracker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dayzeroglobal.phonetracker.locationtracker) — 21,860 users - [Family Locator – Live Tracker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.ironmeta.phonetrack) — 211,643 users, 4.14 / 5 - [Family Phone Location Tracker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/connect.locate.my.family) — 15,996 users - [Family Location Sharing](https://chrome-stats.com/d/net.familylocation.sharelocation.locationtracker) — 8,708 users - [Family Locator - Phone Tracker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/phonetracker.locationtracker.familylocator.trackingapp) — 2,125,422 users, 4.31 / 5 - [Phone Tracker: Family Locator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.toprate.studio.phonetracker.for.family) — 3,057,726 users - [FindNow: Live Location Tracker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.parendy.app) — 120,060 users, 3.24 / 5 - [Family Locator: GPS Tracker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.family.gpslocator.tracker.app) — 1,878 users - [Family Locator - Phone Tracker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.familylocator.familytracker.gps.locationtracker.forandroid) — 4,243,641 users, 4.38 / 5 --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/lk.codescale.wheresnow)
