Methods, systems, user interfaces, media, and devices are described for sharing the location of participants of a communication session established via a messaging system. Consistent with some embodiments, an electronic communication containing location information is received from a location sensor coupled to a first client device. A current location of the first user is determined based on the location information. A current location of the first user is displayed, on a display screen of a second client device, the current location of the first user being displayed within a messaging UI during a communication session between the computing device and the second computing device. The location information may be updated during the communication session as messages are exchanged and as a current location changes. Various embodiments may include additional information with the current location, such as a time period associated with the location, or other such information.
