About
Are you trying to meet up with your friends without a bunch of back-and-forth messages? Do you want to know how far away your ride is? Do you want to let your family follow your trip home, right up until you open the door?
If you answered "yes" to any of the above, fret no more! HatBeam lets you and your friends share your locations with each other for 20 minutes.
Features:
* no login or accounts -- we do not store any of your personal information, or integrate with Facebook, Google, Twitter, the FBI, etc.
* share your location with as many friends as you like
* extremely simple to use -- all you can do is share your location and see where your friends are
* 20-minute limit to conserve battery
* runs in the background, so your friends can see your location even while you use other apps
* free in every way -- no ads or other such nonsense
Now what are you waiting for? People are worried about you!
(Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.)
