 +
 +Once you've chosen to share the location, the system will display a list of installed applications that can share things to other users, like e-mails, GMail, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
 +
 +For example, you can choose to share the location by text message (SMS). In this case, select the ''"**Messages**"'' {{:icon_06.png?nolink}} menu item. The Message application will be started.
 +
 +{{:icon_help.png?nolink}} The Message application is not the same on all devices, the following steps are only given as an example and may vary on your device.
 +
 +  * Enter the name of the person {{:icon_07.png?nolink}} you want to share the location to, or select him from the contact chooser {{:icon_08.png?nolink}};
 +  * Optionally, personalize the text message to send {{:icon_09.png?nolink}};
 +  * Click on the ''"**Send**"'' {{:icon_10.png?nolink}} button.

 +===== How to display locations received from others? =====
 +
 +When receiving locations shared by other users using text messages, the application ''"**SMS Location Receiver**"'' can warn you and let you display the location in one click.

 +If this other application is installed and you receive a location by text message, a notification sound is played and an icon is displayed in the Android status bar.
 +  * Click on the Android status bar to display the notification;
 +  * Click on the notification {{:icon_01.png?nolink}} to start the application and display the location on the map {{:icon_02.png?nolink}}.
 +
 +{{:icon_help.png?nolink}}You can also manually start the ''"**SMS Location Receiver**"'' application to display all locations previously received {{:icon_03.png?nolink}} and display them again. Click on the ''"**Delete**"'' {{:icon_04.png?nolink}} icon of a location to delete it.
