uFindMe Free is a quick and simple way of informing your friends of your current location.

Features:-

- Send an SMS to other iPhone users with a tappable maps link of your location.
- Send an E-Mail to anyone. The E-mail contains a map link of your location and can be read on a desktop computer or on another iPhone.
- Send a Navigon MobileNavigator tappable link to other iPhone users via SMS or E-Mail (Navigon MobileNavigator is required on your friends iPhone to utilise this feature)

When your iPhone carrying friends receive your SMS, all they need do is tap on your map link and their iPhone will automatically start up the Maps app, pin-pointing your location. From there, they can use the iPhone Maps in-built features to get directions to your location.

Want to send your location via Facebook or Twitter? Please consider getting the pay version of uFindMe which is Ad-free and includes Facebook and Twitter integration as well as full message text customisation.

A unique feature of the app is the ability to also send a Navigon MobileNavigator for iPhone link to your friends.

Navigon is a popular turn-by-turn satellite navigation application for the iPhone.

If your friend has Navigon MobileNavigator installed on their iPhone, tapping on the link in the SMS message or e-mail you sent them will automatically launch the Navigon app with your location set up as the destination.

Important Requirements: -

Please note that the app requires a data network/internet connection to function.

For e-mail to work, at least one e-mail account needs to be set up on your device.

For SMS to work, a mobile phone network connection is also required.

The app will work on the iPod Touch, but a Wi-Fi internet connection is required in order to get your location. Lock on to your location using this device cannot be guaranteed and depends on geographical wi-fi data available to the iPhone at the time which varies from country to country. This method is usually not as accurate as when using GPS.
