As a private person and as part of a business, there are a number of reasons why one would want to track cell phone locations. But the main reason is security. If you want to know where your relatives -especially younger and elder members- or friends are, or you want to know where your employees or company's vehicles are, you can track cell phone locations. Also, you can let others know where you are. Locations are displayed in map views that can be sent via SMS or email, or seen online.
To track cell phone locations, cell phones must be GPS-compatible and users must let others know the location of that mobile by subscribing to the service. To track cell phone locations is not free, as automatic route calculation via GPS is.
