  • Publication number: 20160014561
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments described herein provide methods, mediums, and systems related to location messages that may be exchanged between users of mobile devices. The location messages may allow the location of a first user to be displayed on the device of the second user. In some embodiments, a requesting user may send a request message requesting the location of another user. Furthermore, some embodiments may employ a concept of a “favorite,” which represents a combination of a location and one or more recipients. Using favoriting, the user may more quickly and efficiently send location messages to frequently-used contacts based on the context of the user's current location. In order to properly interpret messages sent from/to different types of devices, an intermediate server may be provided. The intermediate server may reformat the messages and/or transmitted data so that the messages may be properly interpreted by the recipients.
