Is there anything out there that will allow a simple GPS location of a phone i.e. cell phone number rather then downloading an "app"?? Cell phones are constantly "handshaking" with cell cites. Seems like there should be a simple GPS locater thru a cell phone number...?I can tell you what happened to my brother's idiot stepdaughter, who put a cell tracker on her boyfriend's phone.
It worked just fine up until he found it and subsequently filed charges and had her arrested. She ended up charged with multiple felonies including stalking under Georgia State law. Cost my brother $5k to get her a lawyer (at the insistence of his wife) who was able to keep her out of the state pen and eventually plead her case down to misdemeanor stalking and a year's probation.
Personally, I think he should have let her go to jail because she is still an idiot and didn't learn anything from the experience.
Can we ask the circumstances of this tracking?Is there anything out there that will allow a simple GPS location of a phone i.e. cell phone number rather then downloading an "app"??

I have a friend that's in the habit of disappearing for weeks on end and her family would like some indication if the phone is still working...Can we ask the circumstances of this tracking?
Because what your asking certainly can be done, it just normally needs a warrant to do it. Unless it's your phone, in which case there's a bunch of find my phone apps.
I've been through something like that with a friend. We had to go through the police and they got the information from the phone company.I have a friend that's in the habit of disappearing for weeks on end and her family would like some indication if the phone is still working...
Not at all, it would be a gross invasion of privacy and very risky to let everyone track the location of anyone from their cell #.Is there anything out there that will allow a simple GPS location of a phone i.e. cell phone number rather then downloading an "app"??
