How To Locate Someone On Google Maps By Phone Number?

To locate a person using their phone number on Google Maps, you generally need their explicit permission and cooperation. Here's a concise summary of the steps to locate someone on Google Maps with their consent:

  1. Ensure the target device has Google Maps installed, GPS enabled, and the person is logged into their Google account.
  2. On your Google Maps app, access the Location Sharing option by following these steps:
    • Tap the menu icon in the top left corner.
    • Choose "Location Sharing," then "New People" or "Select Friend" to share your location with the person.
    • Enter the phone number of the person you want to share your location with, and choose the duration of the sharing.
    • Send the request.
  3. Once the other person accepts your request, you'll be able to see their real-time location on Google Maps.

Please note that attempting to locate a phone number on Google Maps without permission is a security and privacy concern, and you should always respect the individual's rights in this regard. If you don't have access to the other person's phone or consent, you might consider other tracking services or parental control apps, but these often require installation on the target device and might need detailed explanations and permissions to ensure legal compliance.
