Protocol

The trace, step by step

No sign-up. No app. No actual tracking.

  1. 01

    Enter their number

    • Type the number of the one on your mind into the locator console — any country, any carrier.
    • Press “Initiate Trace” to begin the search.
  2. 02

    We triangulate

    • A live trace sweeps the cell networks and pings the nearest towers. Give it up to 45 seconds and don’t close the page.
  3. 03

    See where their heart is

    • The map zooms straight onto the target. 99.9% of traces end with a… memorable result.
    • Then share it — a good gotcha is best enjoyed together.

Spoiler

Yes, it's a prank. No, that won't stop you.

The trace is pure theatre — no number is ever located or stored. But the animation is worth it, and the gotcha is even better when someone's watching over your shoulder. Go on.
