What are Glympse Public Tags?

The Glympse Public Tags feature in the Glympse app lets you share your real-time location with multiple people on a single, shared map. Anyone who knows the tag name can view and join the map by sharing a Glympse with that tag—there is no need to send individual invites.

How Do They Work?

  • Public Tags are easy to use for group activities like reunions, concerts, and sporting events.
  • To join a tag, send a Glympse to it (e.g., !PortlandCyclingClub).
  • Everyone sharing to that tag will appear on the map for as long as they choose to share.

How to View & Join a Public Tag

  • Public Tag maps can be viewed on any web-enabled device: glympse.com/!your_tag_name.
  • To join, tap the “Join Tag” button on the map.
  • You can stop sharing your location anytime.

Glympse Public Tags make coordinating and staying connected easy—whether you’re tailgating, cycling, or at a festival! Visit our blog to read case studies and learn more.
