Transitory is the easiest way to share your GPS location in realtime with friends. With just one tap, you can share your live whereabouts at a private URL for a set amount of time, which you can then send to as few or as many people as you want. After the time is up, your URL self-destructs and can no longer be viewed. Recipients of the private URL dont need the Transitory app or even a smartphone -- as long as they can view a link in a browser they can see where you are for the amount of time you allow. Transitory doesnt require you to create any accounts, is completely anonymous, and completely free.

-----------------

Transitory can be used in hundreds of ways!

- Post your Transitory URL to Facebook while running a marathon so your friends can track your progress for a few hours

- Text your Transitory URL to a friend who youre about to pick up so he can see when you arrive rather than having to ask

- Text your Transitory URL to the friend you just finished hanging out with so he can make sure you get home safely at night

- Tweet your Transitory URL to your followers while youre vacationing in Paris so they can see which interesting landmarks you visit

- Email your Wiffle Ball meetup group a Transitory URL when your meetup begins so everyone knows where in the park to meet

-----------------

Note:
- Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
