How locating a phone works

The same three steps everywhere we operate, no installs, and only ever with the recipient's consent.

  1. Step 1

    Enter the phone number

    Type the mobile number you want to locate and, if you like, personalise the SMS the recipient will receive.

  2. Step 2

    Send the consent SMS

    TraceHero texts the number a request to share their current location. No app is installed on either phone.

  3. Step 3

    Receive the location

    The moment they tap to consent, their position appears on the map in your dashboard, usually within seconds.

Frequently asked questions

Which countries can I locate a phone in?+

TraceHero covers 17 markets across Europe and the US, including Spain, United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany and Italy and more. Pick a country above for its local networks and number format.

How does locating a phone number work?+

You enter the number, the person holding that phone receives an SMS asking to share their location, and once they consent their position appears on a map in your dashboard. Nothing is installed on either phone.

Is it always consent-based?+

Yes. A location is only ever returned after the recipient explicitly agrees by SMS. TraceHero is never covert, and you are responsible for having a lawful reason for each request.

Does it work on any phone or network?+

TraceHero is device-agnostic and works with both iPhone and Android across the major mobile networks in every country we cover. The phone needs to be on, in service, and the recipient must consent.
