The purpose of SMS a GPS is to leverage the communication and tracking technologies of iOS devices to send tracking locations with text messages and emails.
Imagine you are trying to rendezvous with your friends... instead of calling or sending them a text message to inquire their location, you can just send them your location and they can reply with their location. Tap the link in the reply message and you can plot their location on a map and track it.
