    Default Android Cell Phone GPS Tracker?

    My Android cell phone has GPS built into it and my wife and I were thinking it would be great if somehow we could sync an online program with an app to track where I am on the AT in case of emergency. Any app suggestions out there?

    Thank you!

    I used to use Google Latitude, I'm not sure what the current similar program is called. I would update my location only a couple times a day to preserve battery life. It would take a lot of energy to run the GPS continuously.

    Same here. Latitude was easy and effective. Whatever it was changed to sucks and never has worked for me.
