How to determine the location of a subscriber mts belarus. Everything about the MTS Locator service: how to connect and use
MTS has successfully consolidated its position in the rank of the best operator, regularly providing information about the location of the user's phone. Following popular applications (Mobile Employee and Supervised Child), MTS offers a new service - Latitude.
The option allows you to determine the location of a friend or relatives with his consent to this. The MTS Locator service is available for any tariff plans and has an extremely simple activation system.
Features and Terms of Use
The MTS locator is a universal program that works on any type of mobile device and does not require additional settings. The location of subscribers of interest is determined by registering with the network, so a connection to GPRS is not required.
The MTS Locator service offers to view the movement of your loved ones on the map. The option is interesting in that you can connect to it not only MTS subscribers, but also Beeline and Megafon users. Using the Latitude is available through a mobile application, SMS commands or the operator's website.
In addition, the subscriber is offered a basic option for the service - scheduled control. You need to fill in the key parameters, after which the Latitude will display the friend's location data automatically in the form of notifications on the screen. MTS users are given the opportunity to view the history of the subscriber's movements for one month.
If the subscriber of interest often visits the same places, then the program offers to highlight and name them. In this case, you will receive a notification about the movement of the "ward" immediately with clear transcripts of his movements (work, gym, bar). This add-on is very convenient if, for example, you want to control the location of an employee, and how often he leaves the “office” zone.
How to connect
- If the subscriber wants to control the location of a friend, then first you need to create a contact list and invite the person of interest there. To do this, send a request with the name and number of the subscriber to the address - 6677. The request looks like this: Dmitry +79131234567;
- the addressee of the program receives a notification about your desire to connect the Latitude. In case of consent, the user must send an SMS with the text "YES" and the phone number of the subscriber who is allowed to view the geographic location;
- depending on whether the user of interest agreed to register in the program, you will receive a notification;
- in case of a positive response to the request, you will no longer need the user's permission to view his movements. To use the Locator, you only need to send a message with the text "WHERE DIMA" to the number 6677.
Connecting the program is possible in alternative ways - on the MTS website, for example. To do this, you should follow the link - mts.ru. Next, you need to select the "service management" section, check the "activate" box next to the Locator. 
For smartphone owners, MTS offers a special Mobile Locator application, with which you can use the service in full. Service activation is possible by creating a request: *111*788# .
The cost of your peace of mind
MTS offers to test the Locator and within two weeks the service will be provided to subscribers completely free of charge. During this period, you can be convinced of its necessity and convenience. The operation of the Locator during the test period is limited - you can send no more than 5 requests to clarify the location of the subscriber in 14 days.
The free period of use is offered to subscribers only once. If the user deactivated and then reactivated the service, then repeated free 2 weeks are excluded. The service operates on a subscription fee system, which is charged monthly. SMS messages within the home tariff are free of charge.
The cost of connecting the service will be 100 rubles. For one month, subscribers are offered 10 requests to clarify the location of a friend, which costs 2,700 rubles. If you need more requests, then you should use additional operator packages:
- package 20 - offers 20 notifications per month, the cost of the service will be 4,000 rubles;
- package 50 - the user receives 50 notifications about the movement of a friend, the cost of the package is 6,000 rubles.
How to disable Latitude
The location tracking service may be required by the subscriber on a regular basis, and may be required in some cases. In order to terminate the Locator, you need to visit the MTS Search website and uncheck the “connect” Locator box.
For deactivation, USSD commands to number 6677 are also used:
- "DELETE NAME" - if you want to stop controlling one of your friends;
- "PACKAGE STOP" - refusal to prolong the service. Please note that in this case, all remaining active requests are burned;
- "OFF" - complete deactivation of the service, with the removal of the contact database, designations and names of location objects, disabling request packages.

The service provides an opportunity for the subscriber who connected it to always and everywhere find out where the person who is being "surveilled" is located. Let's break down the features:
- the cost is 100 rubles per month;
- within a month, you can send 100 location requests;
- You can also activate the service to spy on subscribers of other operators.
As for the last feature, it is incredibly convenient - even if your children or, say, elderly parents use the services of other operators, you can always connect the "Locator" and not worry about "disappearing from all radars."
The service works as follows: you open the application and see on the map where the person is, who confirmed that you can know about his whereabouts. You can also send an SMS to 6677 with the following text: WHERE and a space separated by the name of the subscriber. Please note that the word "WHERE" must be written in capital letters.
How to activate the Locator service?
Let's look at all the existing methods in order.
As you can see, everything is quite simple and understandable, which means there is no reason to worry: if you can’t do it yourself at all, you can always take your passport and go to the nearest MTS salon, where consultants will help you connect the service, and most importantly, they will explain the connection mechanism itself step by step.
Is it possible to activate the Locator service without the consent of the MTS subscriber?
Theoretically, this can be done: if you briefly take possession of the phone of a person who needs to be followed. Since only those who connect it pay for the service, the “victim” may not know that she is being watched. 
However, a competent user, who also has the MTS application installed on his phone, can very quickly check who has access to his coordinates. If you have committed such an “act of espionage” without the knowledge of the subscriber, and he wants to sue you, rest assured that the subscriber will win the case. Such actions are considered illegal.
But if you have activated the Locator service for spying, for example, on your son, then not notifying him about this is your choice. Only the ethical side of the issue plays a role here.
How to disable the Locator service on MTS?
Just send an SMS with the texts "OFF" to the number 6677. This will disable the service, the re-connection procedure, if necessary, will need to be carried out from the very beginning.
