According to reports, messaging app WhatsApp will start rolling out a feature that allows users to let a contact or a group trace their location or movement on a map in real time. The feature, to be rolled out on Wednesday, lets users share “live location” for a pre-defined period of 15 minutes, one hour, or eight hours. The feature will be end-to-end encrypted like the messages, pictures and videos shared on the app. The option can be accessed from the “attachment” button on the chat and the sender can also “Stop sharing” the “live location”.
