If you need to find out the location of a relative or friend, you can do this by using the popular service of the Megafon telecom operator called “Beacon”.
Instructions
Step 1
Connect the service "Beacon" from the operator "Megafon", which allows you to set the current coordinates of the subscriber you need. This service is especially in demand among parents, who always need to know where their child is. That is why it is available for connection within the Ring-Ding and Smeshariki tariffs for children. In the future, simply dial * 141 # by pressing the call button, and you can find out where the child is. In the near future you will receive a mms message containing a map and exact coordinates.
Step 2
Remember that the information that comes to your phone is slightly different from the real one. This happens due to the fact that the geographical coordinates sent to you refer to the child himself, and the receiving signal - to the station to which he is closest. In cities with a high population density, a larger number of stations are located on the territory, therefore only in them the information received will be the most accurate. Sometimes the error can be several hundred meters, and sometimes tens of kilometers.
Step 3
Send a request to determine the location of the subscriber in another way. This can be done by dialing * 148 * subscriber number # or by calling a special voice service 0888. This function is available by default in most tariffs. For its one-time use, 5 rubles will be removed from your account.
Step 4
Get information about the location of the other subscriber directly on the operator's website by clicking on the special link locator.megafon.ru. After sending a request, after a while you will receive a message with information about the location of the subscriber, as well as a map, which you can view not only on your phone, but also on your computer. In this case, the determination of the coordinates of another person can be carried out only if you get his consent. To do this, he needs to send a message with your number to 000888.
