GPS doesn’t work
They say it uses GPS when out of cellular range. It does not. When you have no cellular signal it freezes and stops updating location.
I’m on my way. No you’re in the shower
Love this app. Also a great way to actually see if someone is on their way when they tell you they are but are actually in the shower.
My thoughts
This app works extremely well. One observation is that it's complicated to add another person to my circle. Please advise on this concern.
Thank you!
CarPlay Removed - Why?
Great app for sending location info to my clients However, it was more useful when it integrated with CarPlay. Please add CarPlay back into the app
Latest update causes continuous notifications
I updated to the latest version and now when I send someone a Glympse, I receive constant notifications that the person I sent it to has read/opened my Glympse. It’s very distracting as it constantly pops up on screen every 1-5 seconds. Please fix this issue
App was great before the recent update
Had to turn off notifications because they were sent by the app every few seconds when someone opened my glympse link to view it. Annoying. Also all info used to be easy to see at once. Someone’s location, speed and seconds since last update were all in one place. I still can’t figure out how to conveniently view that info since the update. Don’t mess with a good thing! Didn’t need a “sleeker” ui. Just need an app that works and glympse used to belong in that category.
Not a fan of the recent updates
We have used Glympse for several years as a surveillance team. It has been great up until the recent update. The large bubble icon and the blue tracking lines that follow every team member have made it more difficult to use. Please offer an option to remove the blue lines. Other than that Glympse has been a great tool for us to keep track of one another while working.
Glympse is awesome!
I use Glympse to show my babysitter when I’m on my way to get the kids. My friend also sends me their location to let me know how far they are so I’m sure to be ready when they come pick me up. It’s helpful!
New update makes viewing speed cumbersome.
It was really convenient to be able to see speed at a glance when looking at the map. Having to click on the icon makes this more difficult.
Great app
This is great for sharing location with business colleagues as I am on the way to meetings. Temporarily shares your location.
Ballooning
We use this app in ballooning for almost every flight. Perfect for tracking crew and flight information!
Great app to let people see where you are
The app lets you generate a link to share your location for a set period of time. I use it when I’m meeting up with folks, so they can see how close I am. Much easier and safer than trying to use my phone while driving.
