About PhoneTrack SMS

PhoneTrack SMS lets a phone respond to text-message requests with its GPS coordinates, without using mobile internet or requiring an account. A requester sends a configured keyword, and the app can reply with a location fix and a map link. The requester does not need to install the app. Users can subscribe a contact to receive periodic updates that include the direction and distance moved since the previous update. New requests remain pending until the phone owner approves or blocks the sender; approved numbers receive replies, while blocked numbers are ignored. This approval gate lets the user decide which requests can trigger location sharing. PhoneTrack SMS requires Android 8 or later and uses SMS rather than a network service. Location is sensitive, so users should approve only trusted requesters and understand that periodic subscriptions continue to disclose movement until stopped. The supplied evidence does not detail how long approval status is retained or whether the app shows a history of shared locations.
