ussd

is it possible to get the location of a phone using USSD?


Is there any way to get the location of a cell phone (i.e. latitude/longitude) automatically when the user starts a USSD session?


Solution

  • On that, talk to safaricom, its possible but I believe you have to convince them why they should allow you to get the location of a cell phone. For now they just provide 4 parameters as a response in USSD responses.
