JoinMe Update Adds Push Notifications

JoinMe allows you to see how close or how far away a person is from your current location and how long it will take them to reach you.  It was recently updated with the ability to receive push noticiations when someone wants to track you. JoinMe is is a simple and easy to use tracking application.  Simply launch JoinMe and set up an account.  It takes a few seconds and it's free of charge.  Once you are all set up, select the person you would like to track from your contacts list.  If they don't already have the app, an email will be sent instructing them to go download it, which isn't a big deal since everything is completely free.  The person you would like to track will receive a push notification if enabled, or they will receive an email asking them to approve the tracking.  If they approve, the app will calculate their location, speed, and the approximate time it will take for them to reach you. JoinMe stops tracking once both people disconnect, so there shouldn't be any unwanted tracking. JoinMe is available in the App Store for free.  We have also added it to our Apps That Push You AppList.
