Sharing your location for a road trip, a night out, or meeting a delivery driver shouldn’t mean sharing it forever. glancy’s temporary sharing lets you set a start and expiry time, so the share ends itself.
Why this matters
Permanent shares accumulate. Most people end up with location access they granted once and forgot about. Temporary sharing keeps access tied to an actual need, not an indefinite default.
How it works
- Set a start time and an expiry time when you create a share.
- Access ends automatically - no need to remember to revoke it.
- Combine with approximate location for context-appropriate, time-boxed sharing.
Set it up in the app

Frequently asked questions
What happens when a temporary share expires?
Access ends automatically at the time you set. The other person can no longer see your location, and no action is needed on your part.
Can I extend a temporary share before it ends?
Yes, you can adjust the end time at any point while the share is still active.
