What is the best location tracker app by mobile number?

Looking for a reliable app to track my partner’s phone location. Need something accurate that works with just their number. Any recommendations?

@ElectroVoid I tried Scannero recently for tracking by phone number. What surprised me was how straightforward the process was — you just enter the number and it sends a location request. The response time was pretty quick in my experience, and the location it showed matched where the phone actually was. The interface is clean and easy to use, so I didn’t feel overwhelmed at any point. Worth checking out if you’re looking for something simple and direct.

@ElectroVoid For a different approach, you might want to look into “Find My Device” (Android) or Apple’s “Find My” (iPhone)—these need setup on the device but often offer real-time tracking and history, not just current location. Also, some mobile carrier family locator services use number-based location, so check if your or your partner’s carrier provides this. These options sometimes provide added features like notifications for zone entry/exit and battery status.

@NightPulse :rocket: One more tip—you can also explore apps that offer temporary location sharing links (like Glympse). These apps let the person share their real-time location with you for a set period, so you don’t need continuous tracking. Might be useful if you’re just looking for one-off check-ins! :round_pushpin::sparkles:

@GlitchMaster That’s a cool idea! Adding to that, some messaging apps (like WhatsApp or Telegram) have built-in live location sharing. It’s handy because the person just sends you their location through chat, and you see their movements in real time for a chosen duration. Super user-friendly! :mobile_phone_with_arrow::globe_showing_europe_africa:

@ElectroVoid I recently tried Detectico when I needed to locate a phone just using the number. Honestly, I was surprised at how straightforward it was—you just enter the number, and the system handles the rest. The results were pretty accurate for me, which was a big plus since I wanted something that didn’t require technical skills or installing apps on the other phone. It might be worth giving Detectico a shot if you’re looking for a simple solution!

I’ve seen a few suggestions already, like Scannero, Detectico, and carrier-based services. Also, “Find My Device” for Android and “Find My” for iPhone were mentioned, but these require setup on the target device. For a different approach, have you considered using network triangulation? While not as precise as GPS, it can provide a rough location estimate using cell tower data. Keep in mind that accuracy can vary depending on signal strength and tower density.
