Glympse is a leading app for sharing real-time location with friends, family, and colleagues. Its intuitive design and flexible features make staying connected easy and efficient. Among its standout features are Glympse Public Tags and Glympse Premium Tags.
While Glympse Public Tags offer all the core functionality for quick and easy location sharing, Glympse Premium Tags elevate the experience with advanced features and customization options—perfect for businesses, events, and community groups.
In this blog, we’ll break down the differences and highlight the key benefits of Glympse Premium Tags.
1. Customization and Personalization
Public Tags: With Public Tags, you can share your location with a basic link, but the customization options are limited. Plus, someone may take the URL you are using and use it for their own.
Premium Tags: Premium Tags allow for a higher degree of customization. You can create unique, memorable tags with specific names and details. For example, instead of a generic link, you can create a tag like “Sarah’s Picnic Spot” or “Mike’s Tailgate.” This personalization helps recipients quickly identify the shared location, making it especially useful for events, meet-ups, or gatherings.
2. Detailed Information Sharing
Public Tags: When using Public Tags, the shared information primarily focuses on your current location. While this is sufficient for basic sharing, it may not provide all the details recipients need.
Premium Tags: Premium Tags enable you to share additional information, such as descriptions, directions, and specific landmarks. This feature is invaluable when coordinating complex events or meeting in unfamiliar places. For instance, if you’re hosting a tailgate, you can include details about the parking lot section, nearby landmarks, and the appearance of your setup, ensuring that guests can find you easily.
3. Enhanced Visibility and Tracking
Public Tags: Regular tags offer real-time location sharing, but the visibility and tracking features are more basic. Users can see your current location but may not have access to advanced tracking options.
Premium Tags: With Premium Tags, you can access enhanced visibility and tracking features. You can set up notifications for when someone arrives within a certain distance of your location, making it easier to coordinate arrivals and departures. This feature is handy for events where timing is crucial, such as group activities, meetings, or large gatherings.
4. Extended Sharing Duration
Public Tags: Public Tags typically have a limited sharing duration, which may not be sufficient for longer events or extended travel. Once the sharing period ends, recipients lose access to your location information.
Premium Tags: Premium Tags offer the flexibility to extend the sharing duration, ensuring that recipients can track your location for longer periods if necessary. This is ideal for multi-day events, long road trips, or situations requiring continuous location sharing for safety or coordination.
5. Enhanced Privacy Controls
Public Tags: Public Tags provide basic privacy controls, allowing you to choose who can view your location. However, the options for managing these settings may be limited.
Premium Tags: Premium Tags come with advanced privacy controls, giving you greater control over who can access your location information and for how long. You can customize the visibility settings and manage access more precisely, ensuring that only trusted individuals can see your location.
6. Professional and Event Use
Public Tags: Regular tags are suitable for casual use, such as meeting friends or family. They offer a straightforward way to share your location but may not be ideal for professional or large-scale events.
Premium Tags: Premium Tags are designed with versatility, making them perfect for professional use, event coordination, and larger gatherings. The added customization and detailed information-sharing capabilities make them suitable for business meetings, conferences, and special events where clear communication and coordination are essential.
