What is SMS with Location?
Wizi SMS with Location is a tiny application that lets you share a location by text message so you can show your friends where you are at the moment or where you’re going to be soon. It sends a tiny url of your location map and can automatically add the full address or the GPS coordinates of the place you're sharing. Wizi SMS with Location doesn't require any registration.

How does Wizi work?
Wizi can find your location by your GPS, Cell ID or Wi-Fi. Users have total control over their privacy: they can share their location when they want to and with whom they want to. They may set their visibility anytime they want become visible or invisible. "Keep me at" feature also allows users to define the location where they want to be seen by others. Traffic information is gathered anonymously by all the community of users that are in movement. A data mining algorithm filters and processes all information learning with users and offering the best routes to a certain destination.
