LockOnMe is the go-to location-sharing solution when it comes to quickly pinning fixed positions or tracking live locations and Points Of Interest on maps and fun offline radars.

A world of targets

With LockOnMe you can easily add fixed positions on the map (search for a place or just right-click/long-press on a spot), change the map style (there are 80+ to choose from, knock yourself out!), and then save or share the page URL.

But you could also store and share your Points of Interest (POIs) or live location in style, in a unique and elegant way: by using a LockOnMe target.

TARGET CONNECTION

Connect to your own LockOnMe target by choosing the Target ID & Tracking Code – which you can both create at will and share with whoever you want.

Then broadcast your location in-app and/or create Points Of Interest (you can select an icon, add a note, website & image link).

TARGET TRACKING

Track LockOnMe targets from their Target ID & Tracking Code – see their GPS location in real time (or at least their last broadcast) and/or their Points Of Interest.

The Web Tracking Console (at lockon.me) can display fixed positions, track targets' live (or last transmitted) locations and/or POIs, create new Target IDs & Tracking Codes, and manage the POIs of a connected target.

The Web Tracking Console (at lockon.me) can display fixed positions, track targets' live (or last transmitted) locations and/or POIs, create new Target IDs & Tracking Codes, and manage the POIs of a connected target.

The mobile apps (Android | Wear OS) can do all of the above, plus they can broadcast the live location and feature offline radar displays.

As an individual, you can use LockOnMe on your own to locate your POIs (list of sites, waypoints, parked car...), or with others to view their location and/or POIs (meeting point, things to see...).

Entities may showcase various sets of POIs, such as commercial spaces, the various stands or sites of an exhibition, a city's highlights for new freshers, etc.

“Hmm, sure... but what does it do?”

Features

• Elegant tracking system — concept of intuitive and flexible reference objects (LockOnMe targets) for storing and sharing POIs and/or live locations
• Great variety of maps — bountiful selection of artistic map styles to choose from (80+ last time we checked) in the Web Tracking Console (at lockon.me), some of which only meant to show your positions on a minimal canvas for clarity
• Offline radar displays — use the mobile apps to save positions and then view offline on the Marine Radar or on the very special "Motion Tracker" (inspired by the Aliens movie) without the need for an internet signal in the field
• Public Targets new! — submit your LockOnMe target for it to get published and tracked by everyone (see lockon.me/publictargets)
• Modular location search — designate fixed positions obtained from location text search, geographic / Cartesian coordinates (lat,lon / UTM / MGRS), or DTMF signals transmitted over the radio [experimental]
• Privacy — non-public target details and positions are not shared with third parties; location history prior to the latest broadcast is not stored; a notification is always present when the mobile app is running
• Battery-efficiency — select the live position broadcast interval for background use
