The last few months have seen Glympse used by a number of companies including BMW and MINI, Ford, Garmin and Mercedes-Benz.

Bryan Trussel, co-founder and CEO of Glympse, said “There are innumerable industries and businesses that stand to benefit from our technology - with this platform, we’ve made adding location sharing to an app or service incredibly easy. Based on the response of our current partners and strong interest from the broader developer community, we were encouraged to develop a publicly available platform that would enable anyone to add location technology with just a few lines of code. Android and iOS developers can add Glympse functionality and be up in running in a matter of minutes. We are excited to see how developers use Glympse technology within their applications.”
