Given how important it is, we’ll run you through the basics on how to share location on iMessage and other available apps, such as Google Maps and Facebook Messenger.

Before you share location, the very first step is to turn on Location. Simply go to Settings >Privacy > Location Services and switch this on.

Method 1 With iMessage

In some cases, like you are lost, you really want to share your location quickly with your friends and family. Fortunately. a built-in shortcut in Apple devices serves for this feature. Here’s how to do this:

Step 1. Go to iMessage and type ‘I’m at’ with a space at the end.

Step 2.Tap ‘current location’ as it appears on the top of the keyboard.

Note

Keep in mind that you need your predictive toggle on. To activate this, go to settings > general > keyboard. Then swipe to make sure predictive toggle is on.

Perhaps you’re not near your phone or don’t want to constantly provide updates on your location. Alternatively you can always share your location. Your loved ones can simply see where you are without asking.

Step 1. Open a conversation on iMessage with the person you’re sharing your location with.

Step 2. Select the ‘I’ button.

Step 3. Tap ‘Share my location’ –you’ll have the option of sharing your location for an hour, until the end of the day or forever (until you deactivate it).

In addtion to using iMessage, you can still share your location with someone with Google Maps and Facebook Messenger. Here’s how:

Method 2 Google Maps

Step 1. Open Google Maps and tap your profile picture.

Step 2. Tap ‘Location Sharing’.

Step 3. Select the person you wish to send your location.
