Where Does Glympse Store Trips?
Glympse shares live location trips that expire by timer with no account needed. History stays per device; active trips show in a web link.
Last updated
Glympse shares location as expiring links without accounts. Active trips with destinations and timers broadcast live to web links, then vanish on expiry. Favorites and history persist per install only.
That makes trips disposable by design: nothing migrates because nothing persists server-side. Exact behaviors may vary by version. Keep trips short; eternal sharing defeats the privacy point. ETA predictions use live traffic. Groups share one map together. History clears on expiry always. Roadside mode shares with helpers.

Frequently asked questions
Does Glympse keep trip history?
No. Trips are temporary shares that expire by timer with nothing stored account-side. Past trips linger per device only. Screenshot arrival times that matter for records.
How do I share my live location?
Set the destination and duration, then share the link with anyone; they watch in a browser without the app. The timer auto-expires sharing. Location permissions decide accuracy.
