One of the most popular uses of GPS tech on our phone is for tracking, either tracking our phone or tracking others'. Here are top 9 free phone GPS trackers to track a cell phone location online. Please remember that you should get permission from the phone owner before you can legally track it down.

Google Maps used to be the one Map to rule all smartphones. But due to some "disagreement" between Google and Apple, the Google Maps was removed from all of the iOS devices and Apple rolled out their version of the Maps.
