35,264 ads from 10 location sharing apps in the Meta Ad Library, 991 running now.
10 location sharing apps have 35,264 ads in the Meta Ad Library between them, and 991 of those were running when we read it on October 23, 2026. Below is a page of creative from each, what formats carry the category, and how long the ads that work stay up.
Location sharing ads work on worry, so they promise to show where a child or relative is right now, lean on the phone number lookup angle in several languages, and keep the install free and a single tap away.
The library count is everything a brand has published on Meta. The active count is what was delivering at the read. The ratio between them is the account’s posture: a large library with a small active share is a brand cycling hard, and one where nearly everything is live is running a small curated set.

Every creative, with its copy, format and run length
A screen recording of the core moment, the budget balancing, the match, the level cleared, beats a list of features. One outcome per ad.
The first line names a frustration the viewer already has. The app is the answer in the second line, not the first.
Installs are cheap; users who come back are not. Send Meta your in-app events, trial starts or purchases, and optimize toward those. "Install now" is the most used button here.
App advertisers who win run many variations at once and let spend find the winner. Vary the hook, the first frame and the person on screen before you vary the audience.
The median location sharing ad here stayed up 8 days. Give a new ad a week of spend before you judge it, then retire what is not getting results and write the next version of what is. The advertisers with the most live ads are the ones testing the most.
