FACEBOOK TO LAUNCH LOCATION SHARING FEATURE - NEARBY FRIENDS

FACEBOOK TO LAUNCH LOCATION SHARING FEATURE - "NEARBY FRIENDS" IN AMERICA

FACEBOOK TO LAUNCH LOCATION SHARING FEATURE - NEARBY FRIENDS

The "Nearby Friends" feature launched must be turned on by the user, so people shouldn't expect to broadcast their location unknowingly.

It will use your smartphone's GPS system to tell your Facebook friends you are nearby provided they have the feature turned on as well. Rather than share your exact location, it will show only that you are nearby, say, within half a mile.

FACEBOOK TO LAUNCH LOCATION SHARING FEATURE - NEARBY FRIENDS


If you like, you can manually share a more precise location with a specific friend you'd like to meet up with. Friends can see where you're located in a particular park, airport or city block. By default, your exact location will be shared for only an hour, although you can change this.

Nearby Friends launches amid the growing popularity of location-based mobile dating apps such as Tinder and Hinge. But unlike those apps, Facebook's feature will let you meet up only with people who are already your friends.

Facebook, whose motto has long been "move fast and break things," built a lot of precautions in this new tool as it tries to avoid privacy fiascos that often bubble up when it makes changes to its service.



That's especially so when it comes to privacy, especially when it comes to location sharing.

In U.S.this feature will work very soon.And we are waiting this feature for Indian users too. Hope it will be available in India very soon.

Share your views regarding this new feature of Facebook.
