I've tested this app with a friend who lives across the country from me, and he was able to track in real time my entire day's travel; even showing my various speeds on various roads and the amount of miles driven for that route. Be aware though, that if you use your iPhone during tracking, tracking will pause for the person watching you on the PC map, but it resumes again, and "catches up" with the route tracing when the call is complete. However, using the Magicjack app or any other "data" type phone service on the iPhone does not affect the tracking. Both of us were amazed with the accuacy of this app and how easy it is to use. Simply click "share" and send a link either by email or message, and the person you want to track you can then click the link and be taken directly to a live map. It works GREAT and worth the purchase fee.

I’ve been using this app for years to share progress with friends and family during hikes or road trips. Take some time to experiment with the app over the course of a couple of weeks and find the settings that work best for you. You can choose from high precision, at the cost of more battery and data or you can choose smart mode which is still very accurate but saves a lot of battery and data because it only updates on significant position changes. With the new Siri shortcuts added, you can now even share a trip with friends and family without taking your hands off the wheel. You can also generate a link and share it anywhere, via message, social media, whatever you want just paste the link. Excellent app.

I like this app a lot. But you have to use only your gps because it uses a ton of data in a short amount of time. It will track you just fine without cellular data turned on. You can turn on your data for this app for a short time just to be able to see the map. Don’t forget to turn the data back off though!!

I love the design, the whole app is just right for sharing trips with my friends and family. I've used this for years to track motorcycle trips and allow people to see where I'm at in (nearly) real time. Awesome that I can save the trips too. Feature request: allow downloading of gpx files from the website!

Everything about this app seems great so far. I love that everything is simple and uncluttered. It's easy for the people you are sharing your route with to view in any device and in real time. And I like that you can see when someone is viewing the route. Hope this app continues to be supported!
