Trusted Contacts is a personal safety app that opens a direct line of sharing between you and your loved ones.
• Add your closest friends and family as trusted contacts
• Allow trusted contacts to request your location. If everything’s fine, you can deny the request, but if you’re unable to respond your location is shared automatically (works even if you’re offline or your phone is out of battery)
• Proactively share your location if you feel unsafe or find yourself in an emergency
• Your trusted contacts can see your phone’s activity status to quickly know you’re OK
Whether you’re online or offline, in an emergency or just need reassurance, Trusted Contacts connects you with the people you care about most at the times you need them most.

Google has a new app to ensure you and your loved ones can keep track of each other in case of an emergency: meet Trusted Contacts.
The new app basically revives Google's Latitude location tracking option under a new name. Google Latitude used to do the trick at one point, but
Google discontinued that app back in 2013 and offered no replacement for it up until now.
With
Trusted Contacts, Google once again allows users to locate, be located and communicate with friends and family in case of an emergency, or just in case you want to feel safer and give loved ones some peace of mind.
"Whether it's hiking alone or walking down a street after dark — sometimes you want to know someone's got your back,"
says Google.
"This new personal safety app lets you share your location with loved ones in everyday situations and when emergencies arise — even if your phone is offline or you can't get to it. "
Google Trusted Contacts - How It Works
The new Trusted Contacts app for
Android lets you add people with whom you want to share your location and authorized persons can find you even if you're offline. In case of an emergency, the trusted contacts you've authorized can check up on you by requesting your status. You can respond by sending them your location or by denying their request. If you don't respond at all within five minutes, however, Trusted Contacts will automatically share your current location with the authorized contact. If your phone is offline, the app will share your last known location.
You can also use the app as a virtual companion for your commute, sharing your route with a trusted contact so they can track your ride and make sure you made it safely to your destination. When your commute is over, just push the button on the lock screen or at the top of the screen to stop sharing.
Potential Drawbacks
While
Google's new Trusted Contacts aims to serve as a personal
safety tracker app designed to make it easier for loved ones to locate each other and stay in contact, there are also potential drawbacks if someone abuses the app.
Abusive partners, jealous lovers, overprotective family members and others can use the app to keep track of you at all times, so it's advised to select your trusted contacts carefully.
That said, Google's Trusted Contacts app is now available as a free
download on Google Play.
and your loved one want to know your location...you can prove that you are there where should you be and where did you say that you are...
