Text Phone Location

"Tphone Location" can quickly send a text of your location to Family or Friends.

Everyone who owns an android has the ability to quickly send a text message of their location to family and/or friend's. By using Google Maps Geocoder, "Text Phone Location" does exactly that.

You simply enable GPS to get your coordinates, enter the phone number you wish to send your location, and one of the following options:

Location, Address, or Street View.

Once they receive your message, they simply tap or hold the link and will display your current location on Google Maps or StreetView.

Included on the message is your coordinates which can be entered on any desktop with Internet Access.

The Timer Option is used by continuously sending your current location by a duration (hours) and interval (minutes) of your choosing. After setting the Timer, you can tap the "Home" icon, which will continuously send your location in the background while having full functionality of your phone. It will notify you when each interval is met. This is very useful on long distance trips, hiking, camping, just to name a few.

An additional feature "Show Weather" queries Weather information from Yahoo, then will display the:

Current Temperature (Fahrenheit / Celsius)

Wind speed

Humidity

Four Day Forecast

Hi and Low Temperature
