How to share the GPS location on Whatspp in Android Studio.

Creating New Project.
File => New => New Project => Configure your new project => Select the form factor yours app will run on => Add an Activity to Mobile => Customize the Activity => Finish.

Create Xml file in project.   
Open => app => res => layout - activity_main.xml.

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@drawable/image"
    android:paddingBottom="64dp"
    android:paddingLeft="64dp"
    android:paddingRight="64dp"
    android:paddingTop="64dp">

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/btnShowLocation"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="36dp"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_centerInParent="true"
        android:background="@drawable/btn_back"
        android:text="SEND LOCATION"
        android:textColor="@color/colorPrimary" />
