LockOnMe

Location sharing: track live locations and/or Points Of Interest on maps|radars

LockOnMe is a multi-platform (Web | Android | Wear OS) location sharing app used for pinning fixed positions as well as tracking live locations and/or Points Of Interest (POIs) on maps & fun radars.

𝗔 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗟𝗗 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗔𝗥𝗚𝗘𝗧𝗦

With LockOnMe you can store and share your Points of Interest (POIs) and/or live location in style, in a unique and elegant way: by using a "target".

A target is identified by a Target ID and Tracking Code pair: Johnny / Exploring.

The Target ID represents the main identifier — as in Alpha1, MarsBaseAlpha, or just Bob.

And you can think of the Tracking Code as some sort of instance or session name — like session1 (yes, very original…) or treadstone (already more fancy) — or as a more descriptive qualifier, especially if your target is only meant to list POIs — gardens (now we're talking).

As an individual, you can use LockOnMe on your own to locate your POIs (list of sites, waypoints, parked car...), or with others to see their location and POIs (meeting point, things to see...).

Entities too may showcase their sets of POIs (possibly using different Tracking Codes), such as the various stands or sites of an exhibition, a city's highlights for new freshers, etc.

𝗧𝗪𝗢 𝗠𝗔𝗜𝗡 𝗙𝗨𝗡𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦

𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 — connect to your own LockOnMe target by choosing the Target ID & Tracking Code – which you can both create at will and share with whoever you want – and then broadcast your location in-app and/or create Points Of Interest (you can select an icon, add a note, website and image link)

𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 — track targets from their Target ID & Tracking Code – see their Points Of Interest and/or follow their GPS position in real time (or at least their latest broadcast, if available)

bountiful selection of artistic map styles to choose from (80+ last time we checked) in the Web Tracking Console (at 𝙡𝙤𝙘𝙠𝙤𝙣.𝙢𝙚), some of which only showing your pinned POIs for clarity

𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝘀

Use the mobile apps to save positions and then view them offline on the Marine Radar or on the very special "Motion Tracker" (inspired by the Aliens movie) in the field when the internet signal is poor

𝗣𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗧𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘀 (new!)

Submit your LockOnMe target for it to get published and tracked by everyone (see 𝙡𝙤𝙘𝙠𝙤𝙣.𝙢𝙚/𝙥𝙪𝙗𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙨)

𝗠𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵

Designate fixed positions obtained from location text search, geographic / Cartesian coordinates (lat,lon / MGRS), or DTMF signals over the radio

P𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗰𝘆

Non-public target details and positions are not shared with third parties; location history prior to the latest broadcast is not stored; a notification is always present when the mobile app is running
