When you view this, you do not directly alert or notify the person whose trip you’re tracking you’ve done so. This travel feature is viewed independently by selecting the travel card from the bottom of the display and shows a dotted line from the original place to the new place the person followed. However, Snapchat does have a feature that displays when someone travels from one location to another, using time and distance to calculate whether they moved by car or plane. If the map doesn’t appear for someone on Snapchat, it means they either have Snap Map disabled, or they haven’t used the app for over six hours. It’s possible to check the location of someone on the map through both the Snap Map itself and the profile of the Snap user.

After about five to six hours of leaving the app unopened, your location will be deleted from the app. When you open the app, your location will automatically be updated. They might have even opened the map by accident when sliding their finger on the screen. Instead, they might have been looking to see a different person’s location or no specific person’s location at all. Just because someone scanned by your Bitmoji on the map doesn’t mean they were actually checking out your place in Snap Map. Since opening the Snap Map from the camera display shows everyone’s location on your map, it’s tough for Snapchat to actually display who has viewed your location. Most of the time, the answer is a hard no. The answer to this is a bit more complicated than you might think. In any case, it’s easy to control who is able to see your location via the controversial Snap Map feature.Ĭan You See If Someone Checked Your Location on Snap Map? With Ghost Mode enabled, you can still use Snap Map to see the locations of your friends all while your Bitmoji stands still, silently guarded by the ghost mask they hold in front of their face.Īlternately, you can rely on manually sending your location to someone if you want to keep your location private with the exception of a few moments each year.

As described above, Ghost Mode gives you the option to hide your location for 3 hours, 24 hours, or until you turn off Ghost Mode manually, effectively hiding your location for good. You can’t turn the feature itself off, but you can turn your personal location off by enabling Ghost Mode. Snapchat isn’t broadcasting your location 24/7. So, if you’re worried about your privacy but still want to use this feature, don’t worry too much. Snapchat doesn’t make it specific when this happens, but in our tests, locations never get older than seven hours before your Bitmoji disappears off the map, waiting for Snapchat to be reopened. It’s also worth noting that your Snap Map location will almost always expire overnight since the app’s location expires after several hours of inactivity.
