I’m taking a long biking trip soon and want to share my live location with my boyfriend in case something happens. Any recommendations for privacy-focused apps that can accomplish this? I’m on Android, he’s on iOS.

Did you respond to the right comment? I mentioned Telegram specifically and I’m fairly certain OsmAnd can’t do live location sharing.

That’s why I responded to you. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.osmand.telegram

I wouldn’t suggest a solution using telegram to anyone not already using it.

Oh, that’s a separate app, I wasn’t aware of that, no. Interesting, thanks! I don’t use Telegram anymore though.
