TXT2Locate

Automatically send your location as a Google Maps link in a text message.

TXT2Locate provides an easy and transparent way to send your device's location to friends, family members, or to yourself (if you have lost your phone). A text message keyword sent to your phone will trigger the TXT2Locate application to return your current location using Global Positioning (GPS), cell tower location, or wifi location.

Features include:

- GPS location query

- Automatic fallback to cell tower or wifi location

- Limit responses to selected contacts

- Control of the location response text message

- Options to include direction of travel, speed of travel, and altitude information

- Limited battery consumption (GPS is only used when a query is made)
