Google to stop supporting Trusted Contacts app from 1 December, app officially pulled from Play store- Technology News, Firstpost

October 19, 2020

FP TrendingOct 19, 2020 13:55:05 IST

From December 2020, Google will discontinue its emergency location sharing app Trusted Contacts. The app was introduced by Google in 2016 to share location information with people. “Trusted Contacts won’t be supported after December 1, 2020. If the app is installed on your device, you can continue to use it until then. To share your location with others, try Location Sharing in Google Maps,” reads the message on Google Trusted Contacts. Google says if users have created trusted contacts, they can download them from the trusted contacts page until 1 December 2020. After that, the trusted contacts will not be able to see the live location shared by users with them from the app.

Since 2017, Google Maps has been helping users share real-time location, but one has to constantly track, share their location with others all the time instead of only broadcasting it to their loved ones.

Google Trusted Contacts

Trusted Contacts allowed users to share their location with a trusted contact, be it family or friends, if they feel unsafe or want somebody to watch out for them. Also, in situations where you were not able to get your phone or your device is offline, your trusted contacts could find you.

In July 2017, the app was launched for iOS devices, months after being introduced for Android devices.

Users can control how fast their location is shared when their ‘trusted contacts’ request for the location. Initially, the limit was set to five minutes, which was later changed and users could choose anything between sharing the location immediate to waiting up to an hour.

The announcement comes within days after Google announced new updates and changes for Chats and Hangouts. Last week, Google said that it will officially transition users from Google Hangouts to Google Chat from next year.

In a blog, Google said that from 2021, Chat will become available as a free service both in the integrated experience in Gmail and the Chat standalone app.
