Find My Friends – iPad App


Find My Friends app is now available from iTunes and Apple, Inc. The new free app allows you to locate invited friends and family from your iPad and iPhone or iPod Touch device that is running iOS5. You also need to sign in with an Apple ID and use iCloud. This app is different than Find My iPhone which is used to locate your devices instead of your friends.

As part of the app settings, you can use temporary sharing to limit the time you share your location with others. You can set the privacy settings to prevent others from following you. As a parent, you can manage how your children use the app and still check up on them.

It will be interesting to see how this app develops.
