The popular photo app Snapchat recently launched a new feature called Snap Map. It’s a quick and easy way to share your location with your followers. But, some parents wonder if the feature goes too far.

That is a concern Carbondale Police Sgt. Amber Ronketto shares. She said Snap Map can potentially be dangerous for people of all ages.

“If you’re checking in at a whole bunch of locations that aren’t your house, a potential criminal who knows where you live or can figure it out from your past check-ins — where you live — (and) can come and burglarize your house,” said Ronketto.
