GPS Location Sharing

[thereal_ppapp]

So I am creating an app where I need to be able to have users share, view and track their real time locations on the same map similar to the way Uber’s map UX works, basically users need to be able to see each other. What is the best way to accomplish this and thank you for your responses in advance.

Real-time location is not available with AppSheet. The best you can do is get the location the last time a user made a change in the app.

Can that task be automated to request and display each users LatLong or does that need to be manually provided by the user each time and do you know if that function will be available in the near future? Thank you.

To get the user’s location, the user has to be interacting with the app via filling a form where you can read the user’s location with HERE() expression
