Often life situations force us to search for a loved one, while some turn to official authorities, while others immediately use the services offered by mobile operators to search for their subscribers. In order not to waste precious time in the event of such situations, but to quickly determine the location of a person by phone number, it is better to activate the appropriate services in advance. Thus, the MTS operator offers several convenient services, each of which has its own purpose.
Determine the location using the service from MTS "Locator"
To be able to periodically find out the location of your loved ones and friends, MTS offers the Locator service, which can be controlled via SMS messages, a website or an application for the iOS / Android operating system.
Before determining the location of a person by phone number, you must activate the service and obtain the consent of the other subscriber to track his number. To do this, you need to send a free message to 6677 with a text containing the name and phone number of this subscriber (for example, "Ivan", 89161114445). If he agrees after receiving the request, then the service will be automatically activated, otherwise it will not be possible to track the location of the person.
The Locator service can be controlled using SMS commands. Thus, the service user can send the following requests to the number 6677. 1. NAME NUMBER - adding a subscriber in Russian or English to the list of the subscriber to be searched for (for example, Masha 89165552223).
2. POINT NAME or TOCHKA NAME - setting the location where the subscriber is using the service (for example, POINT HOUSE). The parameters are required to respond to the WHERE NAME command if the searched subscriber is nearby.
3. OFF - deactivation of the service and deletion of the list of subscribers from whom consent was obtained to track their numbers.
4. DELETE NAME - removes the subscriber from the list of numbers whose location is being determined (for example, DELETE IVAN).
5. WHERE NAME - request the location of the subscriber from the list (for example, WHERE IS IVAN).
6. WHOM - request a list of searched subscribers.
7. HELP TEAM - request for help for any of the teams. If you need a list of all commands, you should send a HELP request without the specified parameters.
8. PACKAGE - request for the remainder of the package indicating the date of the next write-off of the subscription fee.
9. PACKAGE INCLUDE - activation of the "100 requests" package.
10. PACKAGE STOP - temporary suspension of the service with the termination of the monthly payment.
You can also determine the location of a person by their phone number by operating the Locator service from the official website.
This requires:
After that, you can use the map on the site, which will mark the places where the numbers you are looking for are currently located. The service allows you to set up automatic tracking, for which you need to enter the appropriate parameters, after which all results at the specified time will be recorded in the "History of requests".
To locate a person by phone number on Android, you need to install the Find My app, which can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play.
The monthly cost of the service is 100 rubles for 100 requests to the location of another subscriber and 10 rubles for each subsequent request. Customers who connect to the service for the first time are provided with a test period of 14 days, but with certain restrictions: up to 5 requests per day for each subscriber.
The service from MTS "Child under supervision" will help determine the location
You can find out the place where the child is now using the "Supervised Child" service. So, you can determine the location of a person by phone number using this service using SMS commands, a website and a mobile application for iOS / Android OS, while the mobile phone does not require additional settings and must support 2G or 3G mode.
To activate the "Supervised Child" service from MTS, you need to do the following:
A family group can include up to 9 people, including both parents.
To determine the location of a person by their phone number using the "Supervised Child" service, you need to send an SMS with the text WHERE CHILDREN to 7788 to track the numbers of all children in the group, or a message WHERE NAME (for example, WHERE IS MASHA), if you need to find out the location of one child …
To deactivate the service, just send a message with the text DELETE to the same number, and the service will be deactivated.
The monthly fee for the child's location service is 100 rubles for up to 3 numbers. The fourth and subsequent numbers are charged at 5 rubles for each request.
In order to locate a person by phone number using the site https://www.mpoisk.ru/, you need to register on it using the method indicated above, add the owner of the number using the "Add child" function and follow the further instructions. On the site, you can make a request for the location of the child at the moment, as well as view the history of requests if tracking number was set in automatic mode.
The "Supervised Child" service invites parents to track their child's number using the "Where are the Children" application on an iOS / Android smartphone, which can be downloaded from the site https://www.mpoisk.ru/family/usage/app/, if it is not necessary to be at home during location determination, but it is enough to have a mobile Internet.
