The whole world has been mapped into co ordinates, I think they are into 3mt squares, each of the squares is given 3 random words, so you can type in the words and it finds the location or you mark a location on the app/map and the 3 words are then shown, you can give these words to other people and they can then put them in the app and the location of where you are is shown and also how to get to you, can be used if you get lost, stranded, eg in emergencies or if you are arranging to meet someone you can give your location or they give you there’s and the app directs people or emergency services to you.
