Apple introduces Find My Friends and iCloud Based location services

5 October, 2011 Apple

Find Friends

 

One of the more interesting things announced at the Lets Talk iPhone event yesterday was Find My Friends for iOS devices. Its basically an optional location tracking service that you can use on your iOS device.

What "Find My Friend" does is lets you share your location with your friends. People will ask you for your location and you can share it with them, provided you trust them enough. After that they will see your location as a dot on the map. It uses your contact information so you can keep track of multiple people. Find My Friend lets you temporarily share your location and shuts down once the specified time runs out.
