WhatsApp to Introduce ‘Live Location Tracking’ in Real Time

After
unleashing untimely deadly blow on all blackberry users weeks ago, the Instant
messaging app WhatsApp is working on a feature you’ll love, that will track the
live location of members, allowing users to track the whereabouts of their
friends in real time.

If
you can still remember, In December last year, WhatsApp added the features to
revoke and edit the sent messages in a beta version testing. The feature is
currently available in WhatsApp beta for the iOS 2.17.1.869 but not available
on the normal platform.

The
“Live Location Tracking” is a new feature already introduced to some
beta tester but will soon be roll out to both Android and iOS platform

According
to info, the features will work on WhatsApp beta version 2.17.3.28 for iOS,
2.16.399+ on Android and will be disabled by default.
 

The
 Live Location Tracking can be kept on
for 1 minute, 2 minutes, 5 minutes, or indefinitely. Now imagine that you have
a lying partner, or a random player, with this feature, you can easily trace
their location in real time.

Or
this could come in handy if you’re supposed to meet with your family at a
certain location and time, and you want to see how far away from the
destination they are.

And
if you don’t want anyone to track your movement,  The live streaming can also be disabled so
that no one can learn where you are at any given moment.
