Simply put, tracking a cell phone number is a way to find out someone's location through the cell phone number they use. Usually, this method utilizes GPS (Global Positioning System) connected to a mobile phone.
This GPS sends signals that can be captured by other devices or certain applications so that the location of the cellphone owner can be seen on a map.
The important thing you need to know is that tracking someone else's phone number without permission can violate privacy. In Indonesia, tracking someone without permission can be considered a violation of the law.
So, make sure you only do this tracking for legitimate purposes, such as when you or your friend actually loses your phone, or with the person's permission.
One of the popular ways to track a mobile number location is with Google Maps. But please note, Google Maps does not provide a feature to track mobile numbers directly.
However, there is a trick you can use, namely by sharing your location directly. Here are the steps you can try:
First, open the Google Maps application on your phone or on the phone of the friend you want to track. Make sure GPS is active.
In Google Maps, select your profile icon or the three-line menu at the top left of the screen. From there, select the “Share Location” option.
After that, you can choose how long the location will be shared. You can choose a specific duration, or until you turn the feature off.
Select the phone number or email of your contact who will receive the location. If the person also uses Google Maps, they will immediately get your location on the map.
This way, you can track the location of friends or family who agree to share their location with you via Google Maps. It is important to note that this method only works if both parties agree and are actively sharing their location.
Apart from Google Maps, there are several other applications that you can use to track cell phone numbers, such as:
This application is useful for tracking HP Androids lost. You just need to log in to the same Google account on another device to see the location of the phone.
If the device is trackable, the location will be displayed on the map. You can also choose other options such as “Play Sound” to make the device sound, “Secure Device” to lock the device, or “Erase Device” to wipe the data if you are worried about the device falling into the wrong hands.
For iPhone users, the app is available on iOS devices. You just need to log in with Apple ID on iCloud.com to see the location of your lost phone.
If the device is on and connected to the internet, the location will be displayed. You can also choose the option to play a sound, lock the device, or erase all data.
Truecaller is a popular application for tracking unknown phone numbers that frequently contact you. Although it is not always accurate for location tracking, this application can help identify who owns the number.
Enter the phone number you want to track in the search field. If the number is registered in Truecaller's database, you will see the owner's information, including name and location (if available).
This application can help you share your location with your family or close friends. With the location sharing feature, you can know where your family members are in real-time.
In the app's search box, enter the number you want to identify. Truecaller will display the name of the owner of the number if it is registered in their database.
Tracking the location of a cell phone number owner can be helpful in certain situations, but make sure you always consider privacy and security.
Use this method wisely and only when really needed, for example when looking for a friend who has lost their phone or when helping family.
