The new feature called “Live Location” is available for both Android and iOS smartphones. This feature will prove to be extremely useful during disasters and crisis situations, as help and relief can be provided more effectively and quickly.
How to use WhatsApp’s Live Location feature
Open a chat with the person or group you want to share your location with. Tap on the attach button, select “Location”. You will notice a new option as “Share Live Location.” Choose this option and start sharing your location in real-time.
Users can also set the time for how long they want to share their location. WhatsApp says, “If more than one person shares their Live Location in the group, all locations will be visible on the same map.”
