I have started using OLC, aka Plus codes, in non-technical communications where lat,lng doesn't make sense or confuses folks. On this page, I am tracking the support of it on various platforms, apps, etc. The algorithm and libraries are open source, if you like to use them in your app.
The Open Location Code (OLC) is a geocode based in a system of regular grids for identifying an area anywhere on the Earth.It was developed at Google's Zürich engineering office, and released late October 2014.Location codes created by the OLC system are referred to as "plus codes".
