How to share live location on whatsapp?

Most people you know are probably on WhatsApp. Everyone knows about the ability to send messages, and share media, but there are some interesting features that you might not know about. Sharing your location is one of them - you can send a map view of your current location to any of your contacts, as easily as you would send a picture or a video.


Using live location

The Live Location feature allows you to share your real-time location for a specific amount of time with the participants of an individual chat or group. You can control whether and how long to share your live location. You can also stop sharing your live location at any time. Once stopped or expired, your live location will no longer be shared. However, participants in the chat or group you shared your live location with will continue to see the initial location you shared, which appears as a static thumbnail image. Participants can then tap this thumbnail in the chat or group to see your last updated location.
This feature is end-to-end encrypted, which means no one can see your live location except the people you shared with. To learn more about your security on WhatsApp, please visit WhatsApp Security. You can also read our Privacy Policy for more information on WhatsApp's privacy practices.

  2. Tap Stop sharing > STOP.
To stop sharing your live location in all chats and groups at once:
  1. Tap More options > Settings > Account > Privacy > Live location.
