Glympse is free GPS cell phone tracking app help to locate your cell phone. With Glympse, unlike other cell phone tracking software, you do not have to registry an account with them; all you need is a desktop or a laptop with internet connection to view the position of the person being tracked on a map.
Glympse Features
- Free to use, you do not need to register an account, just download and install a little app on your cell phone.
- Set permissions to who can track you; those without your permit could not see your location.
- Set a period of time to how long others can track you, like 30 minutes or an hour. After the giving time, people will not be able to view your position.
- You just need to send a link via SMS or Email to others for them to track your location. If the time expires, the link will become invalid and people will not be able to use that link again, so your privacy is protected.
- Glympse is more accurate than Google Latitude; the accuracy is within a few hundred feet while Google Latitude has an accuracy of half a mile.
- Glympse can calculate your speed and give the expected arrival time which varies depending on your speed. While the in-built GPS chip could calculate your speed as well, but Glympse will update your speed and expected arrival time from time to time while your speed changes.
With Glympse, you simply send a link to your friends, parents or coworkers, and they can view your position on a map from either a cell phone or a PC. They do not need to install any program into their laptops in order to track your location. And you can decide on who will be able to see your location and how long that link will expire, so it will not cause any privacy issues. Everything is under your control.
Many other phone tracking apps require people to register an account with them, this will definitely limit the number of people you can share your whereabouts. However you do not have to ask people to sign up in order to simply know where you are.
Glympse is one of the best cell phone tracker software out there, and it’s quite simple to use. Currently it supports Google Android cell phone, Apple iPhone and Windows Mobile Smartphone, and it is to support Blackberry and Palm in the future.
