Glympse - Share GPS location

Share a live location for a limited time

Glympse lets you send someone a link to your current location and movement on a map. It suits people coordinating a pickup, letting someone know when they will arrive, or keeping a group informed while travelling. Rather than sharing a location indefinitely, you can set a time limit for a share.

Sharing with other people

Send a Glympse link to the person who needs to follow your journey. Recipients can view the shared location in a web browser, so they do not necessarily need to install the app themselves. Private groups offer another way to coordinate with a set of people, such as family members or a carpool.

What to consider

This is a focused location-sharing tool, not a general-purpose navigation guide. Its usefulness depends on having a working location signal and on sharing with the right people. Check the share duration and recipients before sending, especially if your plans change. Glympse is listed in Maps & Navigation.
