π€ FAQ
Q: I did all the steps but I don't receive any location through WhatsApp , why?
A: We suggest you to check the following:
1. Since the message trigger is case sensitive make sure you send the exact same message to that device
2. The app reads the notifications of the device when it receives a message through WhatsApp - make sure the device is actually receiving WhatsApp notifications.
3. Make sure you enabled all the relevant app permissions such as storage and location. you can verify that by going into the app permission settings from your android settings screen.
Q: I'm receiving a message that says "Location is not available" what to do ?
A: Make sure you selected background location from android settings to "Allow all the time" for the app, so it can actually get location updates when running in the background
Q: I'm getting the location back but it's not accurate - is it possible to improve it?
A: Since the app relies on the last known location of the device it should send the most recent accurate location - if the location isn't accurate at all make sure the location is turned on
