Who's near

A guy has just messaged saying that his who's near says that we are a 3

minute walk away. I questioned this as I thought that the closest it would show is within 1/4 mile away. He insists that it shows that on his. Could he be able to see this?

... that being said, I've had people try to triangulate to narrow down my quarter of a mile away from them.

This is why mine is turned off

I’d someone within touching distance and they were still about a 1/4 mile away I wouldn’t worry too much

I’ve also seen someone from the other end of my home town who I know and depending wether I’m up stairs or down stairs in my house it can change between 3 minutes walk to 1/2 a mile

It’s really not accurate

That is odd, definitely had it say touching distance as I approached a meet anyway

It may be something to do with your Google location accuracy settings, if you both have your Google settings to high accuracy then it may give you the 'touching distance' message as you phone reads local WiFi signals to help the in built GPS pinpoint you, when you both ping the same network it knows you are within around 30 meters of each other.

Not on Fabswingers it doesn't, the smallest distance in 1/4 mile, which is plenty close enough.

I stand officially corrected but it definitely gave me touching distance before one of my meets

The right place

I was right next to a friend a week or so again. Sometimes they were showing as within 1/4 mile and other times 5miles away.

It’s not brilliantly accurate.

I’ve only ever had quarter of a mile as closest and that’s someone I knew was less than 20 meters away.

Don’t believe it I messaged a woman back in 2008 that was 10 minutes away and it’s now 2020 and she’s still not here

Thank you for a sensible reply, that's what I wanted to know.
