Mapapal vs GPS

One link. One live map. Everyone you choose can follow along. Start a Mapapal trip in seconds and share it with friends or family. They can see your latest location and route in any browser, without installing Mapapal or creating an account. Mapapal makes live location sharing simple for walks, runs, bike rides, hikes, road trips, commutes, and everyday adventures. Your route grows on the map as you move, so the people you choose can follow along without repeatedly asking where you are. START IN YOUR OWN WAY • Use Quick Start to share without creating an account. Start the trip and send the link. • Sign in to keep a trip history, manage your profile, and connect with Pals. • Copy your trip link or share it through your favorite apps. YOU CONTROL WHO CAN FOLLOW Choose a visibility level for each trip: • Private - available only through its unique link. • Pals - shared with mutually connected Mapapal friends. • Everyone - discoverable as a public trip. BUILT FOR THE JOURNEY • See the live route and latest position on the map. • Follow direction, speed, distance, elevation and other useful trip details. • Location updates are designed to continue while Mapapal is in the background. • Set an automatic stop time for extra control over every trip. • Add comments to memorable points along your route. • Review recent trips and manage them at Mapapal.com. • Export the trip as CSV and use it in other map services. USE MAPAPAL FOR Meeting friends, sharing a family road trip, letting someone follow a run or ride, documenting a hike, or simply making your arrival easier to follow. Your location remains yours to share. You choose when a trip starts, when it ends, and who can access it. Mapapal requires location access and an internet connection to share live updates. Continued use of GPS can affect battery life. Mapapal is not an emergency or personal-safety service.
