JoeyPoppins Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 Add an app in phone which would be called "Location" or something like that. They way it would work is whenever you open the app it would be the whole map of Los Santos, but minimized. You could scroll in/out from the map. There would be two features : Share location and Request location. Share location : You would type in a phone number/id(which ever the devs think is better) and press Share location. The other person would then get a notification that "id/number has shared their location with you." Then the other person would open his app and he/she would see the other person's location. It would last around 30/60 seconds. Request location : You would type in a phone number/id and press Request location. Then the other recipient would get a notification that "id/phone number is requesting your location." Then the person would open his app and he/she would see the other person's location. It would last around 30/60 seconds. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaesarSeizure Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 +1 Considering it is possible to share location IRL with people through apps this would be a good addition. Could make it that you could have permanent GPS display with people you choose and would require for you to have a GPS on you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawpi Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 +1, I would love to see something like a share location option as it would probably help the most people to find their friends if there is a need of doing so. At the moment you describe the buildings and areas around you OR you meet at the well known location and then drive elsewhere, location sharing would be a great option to have!

Drizzy. Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 Not trying to be negative but I can see many situations where this could be abused so at this moment of time I cannot support this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreMetal Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 +1 Seems fine. Would also like a way to share your 'GPS destination' location (not sure the correct terminology here, but this is where you click the GPS to get directions to).

Aldarine Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 +1 under the conditions: - An action timer before your location is transmitted - Location share only lasting a short period of time - You can only share your location, not request another person's The reason for this is due to the potential for abuse. As it stands right now you can describe your location/state where you are on the GPS to your friends which takes a bit of time and so the convenience of something like this where you get a ping instead shouldn't also be instantaneous.

MoonBurdy Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 +1 This would be a great benefit for groups and organizations to report position, organize events, etc. Super useful and realistic, since RL examples can easily be found.
