# Location sharing

Location sharing while driving provides peace of mind to family members. The graphical interface helps the user to enable location sharing and create a link that displays his location on a map to a friend or family member while driving.

The feature is implemented across three distinct screens:

1. **Introduction Screen:** The feature is disabled by default. The first screen explains the location-sharing principle.
2. **Duration Selection Screen:** On the second screen, the user can choose the duration for sharing his trip location. The available options include one day, one week, or one month.
3. **Active Sharing Screen:** The last screen confirms that location sharing is active. It includes a button that allows the user to generate and share a link displaying his real-time location. Additionally, it displays the remaining time before the link expires.

To integrate and display this feature within your application, invoke the following method:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Kotlin" %}

```kotlin
DriveKitTripAnalysisUI.startTripSharingActivity(context)
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Java" %}

```java
DriveKitTripAnalysisUI.INSTANCE.startTripSharingActivity(context);
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
