了解如何在Android上共享位置非常有用。也许你被困在某个地方,需要一个朋友来接你。或者,也许您正在组织派对或家庭聚会,并希望确保人们知道在哪里见面。每当我需要在Android(Android)上发送我的位置或共享位置时,我都会求助于内置工具。最棒的是,谷歌地图(Google Maps)让您可以使用任何消息应用程序发送您的行踪,无论是WhatsApp、Skype还是默认消息(Messages)。阅读本指南以了解如何在Android智能手机和平板电脑(包括三星 Galaxy(Samsung Galaxy)设备)上共享位置:
如何在Android上分享您的位置(Android)
发送您的位置的第一步是确保在您的Android智能手机或平板电脑上激活位置服务。您可以通过其快速设置(Quick Settings)轻松完成此操作。库存Android(Android)和三星 Galaxy(Samsung Galaxy)上的说明类似,只是图标略有不同。

插入(Insert)地址或使用地图查找您要分享的位置
如果您正在使用地图,请点击并按住您要分享的位置。这会在该位置放置一个大头针,同时还会在屏幕底部打开一个面板。点击分享(Share)。

你和谁分享了你的位置?
我们建议仅与您信任的联系人共享您的位置。最好只让其他人在有限的时间内看到您的行踪,以防您忘记停止位置共享。在您关闭本指南之前,请让我们知道您与谁分享了您的位置。或者,也许您只发送了一个会议地点?让我们在评论中知道。

Knowing how to sharе location on Android can be extremely useful. Maуbe you’re stranded somewhere and need a friend to pick you up. Or perhaps yoυ’re organizing a party or a family gathering and want to make sure peoрle know where to meet up. Whenever I need tо send my lоcation or share a location on Android, I turn tо the built-in toolѕ. And the great thing is that Google Maps lets you send your whereabouts using any messaging app, whether it’s WhatsApp, Skype, or the default Messages. Read this guide to learn how to share location on Android smartphones and tablets, including Samsung Galaxy devices:
How to share your location on Android
The first step to send your location is to ensure the location service is activated on your Android smartphone or tablet. You can do this easily from its Quick Settings. The instructions are similar on stock Android and Samsung Galaxy, and only the icons differ a bit.
Swipe down from the top of the Android Home screen. This opens the compact view of the Quick Settings. If you can see the Location icon, make sure it’s activated, as seen below on stock Android.
Activate Location on stock Android
You might not see the Location setting right away. In that case, swipe down again to expand the list of Quick Settings, as we did on our Samsung Galaxy smartphone, and activate Location by tapping on it.
Activate Location on Samsung Galaxy
TIP: If you can’t find the Location setting, you can customize the Android Quick Settings menu to include it. Furthermore, you can even move the option to access it more easily.
Next, open the Google Maps app on your Android device by tapping on it.
Tap to open Google Maps
On our Samsung Galaxy smartphone, the Maps app was located by default inside the Google folder seen below.

If this is your first time using Google Maps, the app opens to a map of your part of the world. In the bottom-right corner of the screen, you can see an icon that looks like a question mark inside crosshairs. Tap on it.
Tap on the icon showing a question mark inside crosshairs
Next, confirm allowing Maps to access the device’s location.
Allow Maps to access your Android's location
Your location should then be shown on the map as a blue dot.
NOTE: If this does not happen right away, close the app and relaunch it. You can even try restarting your device.
You can use the crosshair icon (the question mark is gone) to zoom in on your location, but it’s faster to just tap on the blue dot on the map.
Tap on the blue dot to share your location
This brings up a panel with your approximate location. You can choose to Calibrate if you want more accuracy. When you are done, tap on Share location.
Sharing location on Android
Next, decide how long you want to share your real-time location from the dropdown menu at the top of the “Share your real-time location” panel. You can choose a recipient or an app, like Messages, WhatsApp, Messenger, Telegram or Skype.
NOTE: If your contact is not connected to a Google account, but you have their number saved on Android, you get the option to send them a link with your location via SMS.
Set how long to share your location
You can even choose more contacts and then use the Share button at the bottom of the screen, as seen below.

That was it! Your location is available for the contacts you chose for the duration you selected.

When you want to stop sharing your location, open the Google Maps app, and tap on your initial in the top-right corner.

Next, access Location sharing.

This shows the contacts that can see your location at the bottom of the screen. Tap on a contact to see more details and options.

How to share a location on Android
To share a meeting spot, open Google Maps and find the location you want to send on the map. You can use the Search here field at the top or browse the map to find what you’re looking for.
Insert an address or use the map to find the location you want to share
If you’re using the map, tap-and-hold on the location you want to share. This drops a pin in that spot while also opening a panel at the bottom of the screen. Tap on Share.
When the location is pinned, tap on Share
On the next screen, you can choose to send this location to your contacts or use an app to share it.

Who did you share your location with?
We recommend only sharing your location with contacts you trust. It’s also best to only let others see your whereabouts for limited periods, in case you forget to stop location sharing. Before you close this guide, let us know whom you shared your location with. Or perhaps you only sent a meeting place? Let us know in the comments.
