Wave is among our most favorite apps whose use can’t be substituted easily, think PushBullet! Wave allows to private — and more importantly, constantly (live!) — share location with friends and family members, as many as you want to choose for one particular Wave.

If you are going on a trip, it’s better idea to install Wave app on yours and you partner’s Android phone, and always keep in touch by creating a Wave between these two devices. That way, wherever you both are — although, mostly you both won’t be far away from each other — you know where the other one is.

Today, in an update, Wave introduced a full-blown chat windows into the Waves, so that you communicate from right there — you don’t have to fire up your WhatsApp or Hangouts anymore to further the communication. That’s a user-requested feature, btw!

Not only that, Wave is also seeing a UI makeover, which makes the app more appealing, and the tam has also introduced network optimizations and performance enhancements.
