If I’m ‘Live’ it’s usually a signal to say come and say hello!
The live tracking display, providing I have a phone signal will show you accurately my position in near Realtime (Roughly a 2 second delay) and usually there will be a route loaded on the map so you’ll get a rough idea of where I’ve been and where I’m headed (click here to see an example the pink circles are destinations)
Last route shown: 26nd February 2026 – The Stoker
You’ll need to compare my last recorded position on the maps info bar to the time now to determine if I’m tracking in near real-time.
Map controls:
You need to stop live tracking to move the map & work out my current position vs where I plan to go, the planned route will be shown as straight lines (NOT following the roads), each point where the line changes angle/direction is a place I’m heading to so once you see that you can head to that part using a sat nav etc. When you’ve pressed play on the controls my current position is centred and it’ll remain locked on to my last uploaded position.
In the map you’ll see the trip distance, speed and last time the location was updated.
If the speed is showing as less than 10mph but the location is still being updated the I may be stopped for some reason if the speed is above 10mph and the updates have stopped the I may have lost signal and the positions will be re-uploaded in the order they were recorded until it catches back up to Realtime reporting, you can check this by comparing the last recorded position with the current time shown above.
Please, if you suspect that my live has stopped unexpectedly please send a message to me ASAP on the Facebook Page so I can check the status of my Location App which on occasion can crash or stop working.
