Free Cell Phone Tracking Applications

Posted by in Computers & Technology


This article will be on free cell phone tracking applications and how anyone who has a computer can use their computer to track cell phones with these applications. There are several applications that are actually free and they work quite well. Before you get too excited and think that you will be able to track your ex boyfriend with his cell phone, there are some restrictions that apply.

A couple of things that are worth mentioning about cell phone tracking are that these applications must be downloaded and installed on the cell phone in order for you to be able to track the phone with the free cell phone tracking applications. The phone must also be turned on and in a service coverage area. Lastly, the cell phone must have the cell phone tracking application running on it or you will not be able to track that particular cell phone.

Many Sprint customers appreciate the flexibility of the Sprint Family Locater. The Sprint family locater isn’t free and you will have to pay $5.00 a month if you would like to use it but it is very powerful and you don’t have to install any software on your cell phone to use it. It is automatically configured to work with all Sprint and Nextel phones.

If the ability to be able to track a cell phone from a computer is appealing to you, you may want to download and install a cell phone tracking application onto your phone. If you have a smart phone, you’ll want to navigate your mobile browser on your smart phone to one of the free cell phone tracking applications. They are Google Latitude, Find My iPhone, Glympse, and MobiWee. Actually the Find My iPhone cell phone tracker is not entirely free. The application itself is free but it’s not capable of actually doing anything unless you subscribe to a service called MobileMe. If you want to subscribe to MobileMe it will cost you $99.00 a year. If you have an iPhone and would like to try Find My iPhone you can try the MobileMe Service for free for 60 days.
