Facebook Messenger Now Allow Users To Share Their Current Location Using New Live Location Sharing Feature

Facebook Social Media chat updated a new feature that allows registered users to share their live location with friends on Facebook messenger application platform. This new feature of  live location sharing on Facebook messenger is powered by Google map. And goes a long way to let your friends when shared, know your actual location at  that moment.

The new feature is actually sharp and nice, it is just similar to Whatsapp’s Live location tracking. Now with this feature you can share your current location with some selected people, may be on Facebook group or to family members, it can also be sent to single user. The choice is yours to select the set of people who to share your current live location with.

Facebook made this new feature to have an option where logged in users can stop the FB service from functioning if they don’t want it anymore. And when you must have shared your live location to your friends on Facebook, it will be available for 24hours.  So if you want to know the time remaining for the live location shared,  just on your facebook messenger app, you will see a small count down clock where that will be shown to you. So both you that shared and the person or group you shared it to will be able to see the current estimated time it will take you to locate your friends location through car.
