1. Nextdoor: The Nextdoor app has a feature called "Treat Map" that allows you to see exactly who on your street will be handing out candy, and if you're handing it out, you can mark your house with a candy corn so people know to come visit.
If you don't want people knocking on your door, you can mark that too. The Treat Map was created so you can plan your route ahead of time, but it will also give you an idea of where your kids will be trick-or-treating in your neighborhood if they're going without you.
You can also mark your house with a "haunted house" icon to let trick or treaters know to expect a spooky surprise at your home!
2. Glympse: Share and receive locations from any of your contacts and choose how long you want to share your location for and who sees it.
3. Track or Treat: This Halloween specific app is very user friendly, and allows you to send text alerts to any of your contacts for real time mapped updates on your location. Just swipe the tab to indicate you're out trick-or-treating, and your location will be shared to whoever you selected.
KEEP TRACK: @Glympse created the Track or Treat app that locates contacts by the minute so you know where your kids are trick or treating. pic.twitter.com/wdVOdQ5Rcg
