want to check where they've got to.
This is
precisely What Jink Beta do. Select the friend who you want to share your
location with, and if they don't have the app installed, Jink sends them a text
message With a link to download it. Once your invitation has been accepted, you
can see each Other's location on a map in real time.
The app includes a number of handy messages such as
'five minutes away!' and 'I'm running late', so that you can keep each other
informed of any developments at the touch of a button. Jink Will only share
your location with the people who invite you do to so, and sessions end
automatically once you've met up, or within 12 hours, to protect your privacy.
