Reviews

Introduction

The Wave app is one that is dedicated to helping you find family and friends whenever you're wondering where they may be.

The best destination map apps for the iPad

This family tracker app is ideal if you and a friend are trying to meet up for a coffee, you are a worried mom checking to see your teenager has arrived home from school okay, or you're wondering where exactly in the commute your significant other may be.

There are just so many situations in which this family locator app for iPhone can come in handy and you can gather this information without the other arty having to do a thing. The app can be used on your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone.

Let's see all that this app has to offer in our Wave app review. It might just be one of the best family locator apps on the iOS.

Locate Your Loved Ones

This app is all about being able to quickly and easily locate your loved ones so you aren't worried where they are, wondering where you should meet up, or so you can get an idea of when they may be arriving.

The best iPad apps for navigation

The app can even work for business purposes to help you meet up with co-workers and business associates. The difference with this app is that the locating is done without people having to call or text each other because there are times where you just obviously can’t stop to do that.

Of course in order for this app to work both parties need to have the app downloaded on their device. Once that is done you can send a request to the person you are wanting to locate.

After they accept you can then view where they are on a private and live map that is shared just between the two of you. What’s great is that you can see the person’s pin moving on the map because as stated it’s live and in real-time.

App Features

There are a handful of notable features offered within the app such as the Group Waves. This lets you track a group of people which is ideal if you're trying to meet up with a group of friends.

This prevents anyone from getting lost plus gives you an indication of anyone running late. The information is always kept private; just the people invited in that wave can see the map.

Just as you can see their position they will be able to see yours. The Wave has an expiry time so you aren't able to view someone all day everyday; you have to reopen a Wave to see them next time.

The app requires a few quick set-up steps and after that you are set to begin using it.
