Methods to Track Location of a Facebook User
As we have mentioned, there are two main methods you can do it. We will here only see the overview of the methods and later on, we will see the exact guide on how to do it.
The two methods are
- By using the Facebook location services
- By using the phone location service that is the GPS.
Facebook location services are the way you can find the location of Facebook users. It is not as accurate as GPS. Facebook captures the phone location and if the phone location is not available properly, it might not be accurate. Let’s say, someone was in X location when they allowed Facebook to view the location. Now, they are in Y location and now they aren’t allowing Facebook to view the location. Facebook will still show the X location in this case. So, your Facebook location is not as accurate as of the phone location. You need to be careful when it comes to Facebook location.
However, on the other hand, the GPS location can be the perfect choice for everyone. It shows the most accurate location available. It uses the phone’s location (which all the map apps use) and hence the location is as accurate as possible. Also, if the GPS is turned off, the location will not be shown but it doesn’t show the false location. Hence, one can know if they are in a particular location or not. Therefore, you should prefer a GPS location over a Facebook location.
Now, we are going to see how you can track the location of the Facebook user with one of these tricks. We will first see the overview and later on, we will move to the tracking part where we will see the step by step guide.
How to track the location?
