Instagram is launching a new feature called Instagram Map that allows friends to share their real-time locations, enhancing user visibility and connection.

Location sharing has become a common way to monitor the whereabouts of friends, family, and partners, serving as an indicator of serious relationships.

T-Mobile's satellite service called T-Satellite allows text messaging and location sharing, officially rolling out across the US for both T-Mobile and non-T-Mobile customers.

Location sharing services like Find My, Snap Map and Life360 are hugely popular among members of Generation Z, who use the apps to strengthen social bonds and make everything from meeting up at a concert to planning study dates easier.

Google's Find My Device is evolving from simply retrieving lost items to enabling users to share their location with trusted contacts, enhancing connectivity and safety.
