Yes there is. InstaMapper is one that immediately comes to mind. Its free and keeps an online log of the data, but that log is limited.

I talk a little bit about it on this post: Free GPS Tracking Applications and Software

Is there any software to send the data plan by sms in predefined intervals?( for example each 20 minutes). I want to use it to track my truck’s location.

Only if you are the police, the Feds, or the cell phone company. Everyone else is out of luck.

It depends on what type of Samsung phone he has and what exactly you want to do with it. If it is an Android Samsung phone then you should really get Lookout Mobile Security if you want to use it to find a lost cell phone (but it also has antivirus and backs up the device). If you just want something to be able to tell where he is then you should get Google Latitude. It is a really good social tracking app that will let parents and kids keep tabs on each other.

If he doesn’t have an Android based phone I’m not sure what else you might be able to use. You may want to look at out post about free GPS tracking applications and software for more options.

Yes, there is a way for you to track it down. You just need to have a GPS tracking program installed in it. Do you already have one in there?

I know the temptation to track someone you are close to is extremely high, especially when we think they are doing something that is detrimental to the relationship. However, I don’t you can legally track him without his consent. If you are caught you could be charged with stalking and that just isn’t worth it.

Have you tried talking to him? If you can’t trust him enough to not want to keep tabs on him then you might want to consider finding a new boyfriend. You do deserve better than that.

However, if you won’t listen to reason you could get his consent to be tracked without him really knowing what he is doing. Just ask him to download an app that will let you share your location with each other. It is called Google Latitude and it works on both the iPhone and Android phones. You can position it this way to him – you would just feel safer if he knew where you are when you are apart. You should not go overboard here. Simply ask him to download the program so that he can keep track of you and be able to come to the rescue if you have a flat tire or need a pick up after a night out with the girls.

If he accepts then this tracking program will let you know where he is too. If he blocks you from tracking him then you are kind of out of luck, but chances are he is not going to go into the settings and turn it off. Most people just don’t think that way. This way you will be legal by getting his consent and you will be able to track him without him thinking about it (which is slightly different than “without him knowing,” just not very much different in practice).

Hope that helps.
