WhatsApp Launches Live Location Feature...

WhatsApp users can now share their movements in real-time within the hugely-popular chat app.






Dubbed Live Location, the new feature lets users track contacts’ movements for a spell of either 15 minutes, one hour or eight hours at a time. Previously, WhatsApp allowed users to share their location as a stationary spot on a map.


Now, when users opt-in to Live Location, friends can see their location on the map, which automatically updates as they move. WhatsApp says its new feature is “a simple and secure way to let people know where you are”.


Locations are end-to-end encrypted – like the messages, photos, videos and files you send within WhatsApp – which should allay some users’ fears about the feature.

    1. Of course not only you, many peeps in the US don't even know Whatsapp. most Americans don't pay any (marginal) cost for domestic SMS. But its kinda very popular in India and Africa so you are not alone.

    6. I don't use Whatsapp because I believe it's not safe in terms of privacy. I don't use Facebook either.

      It's my choice.

    7. @singledad, you're right though but, it's those that make weekly or monthly mtn and glo subscriptions that are quick to call me Bush woman for not using Whatsapp and Facebook.

      I don't even know what is monthly subscription because I have and use unlimited internet access/service etc...

    8. My nephews in the US are not on WhatsApp. Instagram, snap chat yes. Each time I visit and ask them to send me a picture or video, they keep asking for my phone number and I'm like why number. They send stuffs via text messages and multi media messages.
