First Claim
1. A location information sharing method, comprising:
- initiating, by a first terminal, a location sharing session;
waiting, by the first terminal, for a second terminal to join the location sharing session;
receiving, by the first terminal, previous location information of the second terminal after the second terminal joins the location sharing session, and displaying, on a location display area of the first terminal, the previous location of the second terminal that is marked by using the previous location information of the second terminal;
receiving, by a first terminal, current location information of a second terminal;
updating, by the first terminal and on the location display area of the first terminal, the previous location of the second terminal that is marked by using previous location information of the second terminal to a current location of the second terminal that is marked by using the current location information, wherein the previous location information is received by the first terminal before receiving the current location information; and
displaying, by the first terminal, on the location display area of the first terminal a voice communication interface for providing voice communication simultaneously within the location sharing session, wherein the voice communication is transmitted after the location sharing session is started.

8. A location information sharing method, comprising:
-
initiating, by a first terminal, a location sharing session; waiting, by the first terminal, for a second terminal to join the location sharing session; receiving, by the first terminal, previous location information of the second terminal after the second terminal joins the location sharing session, and displaying, on a location display area of the first terminal, the previous location of the second terminal that is marked by using the previous location information of the second terminal; receiving, by a first terminal, current location information of a second terminal; updating, by the first terminal and on the location display area of the first terminal, the previous location of the second terminal that is marked by using previous location information of the second terminal to a current location of the second terminal that is marked by using the current location information, wherein the previous location information is received by the first terminal before receiving the current location information; and displaying, by the first terminal, on the location display area of the first terminal a voice communication interface for providing voice communication simultaneously within the location sharing session; wherein the method further comprises at least one of; receiving and playing, by the first terminal, voice information sent by the second terminal; sending, by the first terminal, voice information to the second terminal, so that the second terminal receives and plays the voice information sent by the first terminal wherein before the sending, by the first terminal, voice information to the second terminal, the method further comprises; identifying a failure on the first terminal when the first terminal fails in sending the voice information to the second terminal. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)
