+++ Stunning offline location sharing which keeps your privacy! +++

Over There offers you a new way of sharing your location with every mobile phone in the world. You don’t even need an internet connection. It only requires a GPS signal and cellular coverage. This works completely offline, therefore the app wont send your location to any server.

But how does it work?
We use a smart algorithm that allows us to convert your location to a really small link like "www.ovt.re/UlMVQgtg_0wg".
This link can be sent as a text message to any mobile phone around the globe. The algorithms are designed to completely run offline and the link uses a space of only 23 characters. Thus, this leaves enough space to add some additional text, like holiday greetings for example.

Over There also provides a great web-service for the recipient on mobile devices. Every smartphone owner can use this link to easily look up your location using Google Maps.

Another advantage is that if you want to share your location via Facebook, WhatsApp etc., you dont have to allow them location permissions anymore - just use the In-App dialog. Over There 2 will not collect any kind of data.

Finally, all this comes alive on a visually stunning user interface. It provides you with detailed GPS information, including altitude and speed.

This is still not all! Here is an overview of all features we have built in:

+ Share your location with only 23 chars in your text message
+ Share your location via Twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp or email
+ Automatic detection of the local time zone, and time (works offline)
+ Add a tiny link to your photos
+ Copy short links and GPS information to the clipboard and use it wherever you like
+ View the address of your current location
+ Add addresses to contacts of your address book
+ Live GPS information displayed in cockpit-style
+ Your speed in km/h, mph and knots visualized with a blurred interface
+ Your actual altitude in feet or meters
+ The strength of your GPS signal in percent
+ A mini offline map with on-screen GPS information

We plan to add more features in future versions, so stay tuned and have fun!

Latest reviews of Over There 2 app for iPhone and iPad

Not Sure Yet
I am not sure what to make out of the application, since I generally know where I am at, because I use other map or navigating applications. It would be good if one could expand the map to see more of an area.
Nice App
I recommend it. Very handy to complement the address book.
Great app, but now pink icon now hard to see :(
Why did yall have to change something that didnt need to be changed??? I LIKED the black and red app icon. I wish you hadnt changed it. The new pink app icon is hard for me to see on the screen. Please change it back to black and red.
Minimal & Beautiful
Very simple and beautiful way to easily share your location without having to hook into any other social platforms. Nice!
Warning do not install on iPad
This program totally crashed my iPad with 8.1. When tapping app for GPS coordinates it started endless flashing of map area. Could not minimize, could not kill the process - finally had to do Home/Lock button combo to cause reset. Have not yet tried on my iPhone 5s.
