Friend Mapper App Reviews

First problem is - it kills your battery in no time at all. Uses lots of power on both (or all) phones. Secondly; There was a moving tracking delay when I was watching my phone and driving of a good six to eight blocks. I like accuracy. This program has no idea what that is. It also showed me a mile from the house when stopped while it showed my wife in the street at work - 500 yards from her job. Not even worth it for free.

this App is pretty slow to Load up......

this is a nice app and i am really enjoying it. but it would be alot better if it automatically updated your amigos instead of having to wait for them to update themselves so you can see where they are

Love it, does exactly what is described!

It is nice to have but it kills your battery life and not too acurate! But its fun to watch if you are planing to meet someone and you both watch them getting near to eachother :)

Slow load, but with 3g iphones accuracy is perfect. Lost 1 star due to load times. But its FREE!!!!!

It says that it updates every 7 seconds, but not automatically. Your amigos have to update there position for u to view their current location , otherwise itll give u false location. My friend and I tried it. He left his place 30 mins prior to me checking it and it gave me false location. I hope that theyll update this app, so its really accurate. For spouses and partners this apps can cause problem and conflict, so I dont really recommend.

You dont really need a friend with an iPhone to use this, since there is a web based map for tracking people, but the app only shines in an iPhone to iPhone exchange. I can see myself using this when Im heading somewhere to pick up my wife, or shes reading somewhere to pick me up. Two suggestions for the developers: 1] Dont kick me out of the app to text, let me send a message through the amigo instead. 2] Give me the option to request directions to the persons dot, preferably displayed within the app itself. Otherwise keep it simple, and focus on the iPhone to iPhone features.

I have utlized every other tracking application out there and this is by far the best! The Amigos have really accomplished what it takes to make a great app like this...attention to detail. Every app lives and breathes through attention to detail and those with a tombstone threw their hands up and said "I hope it works." Great job guys! Id pay an easy $5 for this app but yet its free! PUHLEASE keep it that way! I just cant say enough about this program. IT ROCKS!

Had some inital set up issues with the 3g net but after or was turned off I could register.

What a great app! And another great reason for everyone to get an iPhone! This app remembers and displays everybodys location from whenever they last ran the app and shows how old that reading is, so the only time you really need to run this app is when you want to update your own location. The fastest refresh rate (7 seconds) shows almost continuous movement on everybodys screens, but the slowest refresh rate (52 seconds) works very well too. And you can text and phone everybody just by touching a button on their maps. Good stuff!

This is a good app but could be better if it could update automatically, maybe giving you the option on how often so u can save battery life. It also kicks you out whn use the text option wich is very inconvinient. Also if could give u directions to your amigos directions, it would be nice. If these things got done I wouldnt mind paying a lot more for this app, cuz not only would it be a great tracker but be very helpful if my phone was ever lost or stolen. Please make these things happen!

The initial map takes forever to load. And the initial location of my phone is always about 1 mile off. Hopefully future updates will correct these issues.

Good app worth the money

Good app but does anybody know an app that locates your friends only by their phone number?

Very useless.

Does not tell you where your friends are until they update their location. How often will your friends do that? I dont care where my friend was 645 hours ago!

This app is like the Marauders Map (of Harry Potter fame) for your mobile device! The biggest limitation (and its an iPhone limitation since these apps arent allowed to run in the background) is you have to be running the app in order for your position to be sent to your friends. On the iPhone if you go back to home, the app stops running.

This works really well, particularly when the people are outdoors. It does drain the battery pretty quickly. I like it that it only updates your location when you choose to run the app, since otherwise it would be too much like spying on someone. It works really well for bike rides or hikes or shopping, when you might get separated and want to know how to get back together. I imagine it would be great at Disneyworld. If it is possible, it would be nice to be able to choose whether or not to update locations in the background, but apparently from the other posts, this is not possible with iPhone.

Perfect now i know where is my girlfriend is
