Quickly locate your device by texting 'Where are you? '- Location SMS will then reply with its current location Even in Do Not Disturb mode, you can text your phone 'Lost' and it will ring at high volume so you can find it! Set up a 'Geofence' to automatically send a text message to a person of your choice everytime you enter or exit an area

@ugur2nd You need to text your own phone number not the authorisation code. For example text your phone number 'Where are you? 9230' or whatever your authorisation code is set and it will reply with your current location.

This is brilliant. Market this outside of the US. In Nigeria, the ratio of android to ios devices is 10:1. Kudos

@astghik_azaryan For locating the device using a text, this is what happens: Location SMS receives a text message and checks if the text contains 'Where are you?'. If the text contains 'Where are you?' then the app will check if you have allowed the sender to request your location or the text or the text contains an authorisation code. If that is true then Location SMS will find your location using GPS and replies with a google maps Url with a pinpoint on your location. For the Geofences, every set period of time, the app will get your current location in the background and check if you have entered or exited one of your Geofences. When you enter or exit a Geofence, a text can be sent to contacts of your choice.
