Techniques are disclosed to predict whether a current location of a mobile device corresponds to a user of that mobile device. To do so, the mobile device may evaluate information from sensors that indicate a current state of the device or device surroundings. Based on the probability, the mobile device may send the current location and the probability to a user of the mobile device, an application on the device, or another party.
