Best app similar to "Find my Friends?" - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

My wife and I both used to have iPhone 4's, but I upgraded a little over a month ago to the AT&T SGS2, while my wife kept the iPhone 4 but plans to upgrade to the 4S in a few months or just wait for the next iPhone. Either way, we miss being able to see where eachother is at like we could with "Find My Friends" on the iPhone. She is a full time substitute teacher so she could be working at any of like 8 different schools, and while she knows in advance which one I don't always remember which one she is working at. She doesn't answer her phone at work even when she isn't in class because she says they have a very strict policy on phones at the school. Anyway, if I needed to know I could just use that app and see where she was (and I could tell from her location which school that was).
Is there an app for both iPhone and Android that would work for us? It appears that AT&Ts FamilyMap app works but that costs $10 a month, and I would prefer free or at most a one time app purchase. Thanks in advance for any help.

Why don't you use latitude? Its google much better. find friends I'd a cheap copy

Not sure what your problem is, but I do know that you are an asshole. My wife has offers to be a teacher, she just prefers substituting and being as she is a full time sub the pay is comparable.
Thanks everyone, we will try out Latitude. She doesn't have a gmail account and it looks like she needs one so we will make her one and try it out and post back.

dont think it was stolen... when you upgrade with TMO if you only have 1 line you can add a line ( shared minutes ) for 5.00 more and get a phone at the discounted price. I got my Vibrant for 243.00 with a 100 rebate and i got one free. chose to give the free one to my wife rather than sell on craigslist. Its a good deal if you know how to work it. I got a buddy that has 3 lines and when he gets the upgrades for the discounted price he just sells the other 2 for a good profit.

Vibrant vs. Blackberry Curve

Im one of those people who need to get a new phone every few months and after hacking playing with the vibrant for some time its awesome. However the vibrant wwas going to be my permanent phone but now with everyone getting blackberrys it makes me want to get one just for bbm. I know theres apps such as kik and ping but not the real deal. I have simple mobile (t-mobile for those who havent heard of it)rright now unlimited everything for 60 a month. I would probaly get an umlimited boost mobile blackberry plan for the same exact prize no tax or anything. Would you stay with the vibrant or get a blackberry. Or wait till the new ish*t comes out and ssee if it brings a new chat service?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Dude, Vibrant. No contest. Not even kidding. I had a Curve for a year. Total lack of games and apps. Little screen. The web browser is horrible. If you wanna "be like everyone else", I'd rather you get an iPhone.
Trust me. Blackberry = Bleh.
BBM is not worth it. All of those people's BB's come built in with gtalk on it. Use gtalk to talk to them. It's the same thing. The only difference is BBM makes you have a pin number.

Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I've had a total of 3 blackberries and none of them compare to the Vibrant or even a G1 (seriously). The lack of good free apps, the lack of touch screen, the screen isn't big enough, blackberries tend to get real sluggish over time, the lack of full customization etc. I can go on for years. The one thing I love about blackberry is that its phones are luxurious looking. In a way its somewhat exotic. At least in my opinion.

I'm telling you, you'd be sorry. I wouldn't even trade a G1 for another blackberry and I'm being honest. They're nice phones for business purposes or showing off to older women. If you do decide to trade let me know your thoughts after you do so.
Just curious, do you live in NY? Everybody in NY is crazy for blackberries. Bbm is the new movement in NY for whatever reason.

I figured that's why you're interested in trading. If I was you and I really wanted to know what its like to have the blackberry over the Vibrant I'd just trade with a friend for a day. I'm pretty sure you know someone with a blackberry and I'm more than willing to bet they'd have no problem with trading for the day or forever for the Vibrant.

She also said that they are thinking about giving free samsung flip covers to people who participate in the demos. she was 90% sure they are (in the malls at least, dunno about best buy stores).

Free 50GB of cloud storage from BOX for LG phones and Tablets

I ran across this while surfing the interwebs.. It says 50GB free for the life of the account for all LG phones and tablets.

Hopefully you guys can benefit from it. I haven't gotten an Optimus G yet unfortunately, so I can't.. (Edit) It does say you can pass along 50GB to other people too.. Maybe one of you guys can hook me up if it works for you...

From what I read it's good for the life of the box account... I actually couldn't find a work around from not having an LG device to get the 50GB..

Haha, Good luck with that one.. Only brand S4 I want is a Samsung. German cars tend to be over engineered & convoluted. They're nice if you don't work on them yourself. To each their own though.
