To respond to an invitation
When a friend invites you to share your location in Latitude, you can respond with:
Accept and share back
You and your friend can see each other’s locations
Accept, but hide my location
You can see your friend's location, but they
can’t see yours.
Don’t accept.
No location information is shared between you and your friend.
To view your friends’ locations
You can view your friends’ locations on a map or in a list.
When you open Maps, it shows your friends’ locations. Each friend is represented
by a photo icon with an arrow pointing at their approximate location. If a friend has
chosen to share city-level locations, their icon will not have an arrow and it appears
in the middle of the city.
If your friends use Google Talk, their online status (available, busy, and so on) is
indicated by a circular icon below their pictures. For more information, see
“Changing and monitoring online status” on page 153.
To see your friend’s profile and connect, touch the photo. Your friend’s name
appears in a balloon. Touch the balloon to open a screen with details about your
friend and many connection options.
When you open Latitude you see a list of your Latitude friends, with a summary of
their last known locations, status, and so on. Touch a friend in the list to open a
screen with details about the friend and many connection options.
To connect with and manage connections with your friends
Touch a friend’s contact details balloon in map view or touch a friend in list view to
open the friend’s profile. In the profile screen, you can communicate with your
friend and set privacy options.
