We are all impatiently counting down the days until Christmas and the moment when the presents will shine under the Christmas tree, which the elves are already diligently wrapping somewhere in Lapland. If you want to track Santa's delivery and spice up the wait, you can help yourself with apps and websites that follow the benefactor from the North Pole every step of the way.
A tracking pioneer Norad (control center of the US and Canadian air forces) with the online "Santa Tracker" or Norad's predecessor, Santa Claus Conad (continental air defense) that it has on the radar for almost 60 years. It all started with answering the phone calls, but today is not much different, only the calls have been changed apps and websites, which, in addition to the location of Santa Claus, give us many other points of interest. Let's look at some of the most attractive.
Crazy Santa Tracker
Crazy is used to track Santa today Bing Maps (where he moved from Google due to the partnership with Microsoft). In addition, the app and website offer the countdown to Christmas Eve, many holidays songs, videos, games, a cute Santa village and Norad's history of locating Santa. The best part of Norado is by Thin Ice, which is quickly addictive.
Available for: iOS, Android and Windows
Google Santa Tracker
Google initially followed Santa along with Norado, but when their paths diverged, this American giant tipped his follower to Santa. You can also find it here the countdown to Christmas Eve and daily unlocked games and clips, like an advent calendar. In addition, it offers a walk through that is interactive and forcefully endearing Christmas village and educational instructions for children. Definitely a page that will distract you well so that you wait a little less impatiently for December 25th.
If you are looking for an application or the website that most closely follows Santa or is the most up-to-date with what is happening, then it must be said that they are Norad's satellites slightly faster. We therefore recommend that you use the Google tracker until 24.12, and then switch to Norad's that day.

Where is Santa? Lit
Where is Santa? immediately gets to the point. It shows you Google map and radar icon. By positioning it, it starts looking for Santa's location and thus answers the question from the name (Where is Santa Claus?). You can search for it in minute intervals and each time you will receive a new informative "gift" (example: "Santa Claus is currently at the North Pole and has just added the boy from the next street to the naughty list because he didn't listen to his parents."). So it also serves as educational material. In addition, it understands your location and gives you approximate time of his arrival, so you know how much you have left to set milk and cookies for him by the fireplace.
Available for: iOS and Android (free of charge)
Santa Tracker Lite
Similar to Where is Santa?, Santa Tracker is very straightforward. It's in front of you a three-dimensional planet and two points on it - your location and Santa's current location. A digital globe can, like a real one, rotate with your finger. The app also offers countdown– until Christmas Eve, as until then, when Santa is on his way.
In addition (in the case of the paid version of the application), you can send Santa Claus to test drive and set his sled speed. In return, you will receive interesting information, such as how many presents did he deliver, where he is now, where he was last, where he is going, how much he ate, how fast he is traveling now, etc.
Available for: iOS and Android

TrackingSanta.net
Maybe TrackingSanta.net it is not as elegantly wrapped website as the first two, but that's why it hides a lot inside more surprises like Norad's and Google's site, and thus quickly makes up for its lack of aesthetics. How not, when the biggest Christmas association stands behind it My Merry Christmas. Places you in front of a popup map with gifts and bouncy sleighs, behind which they hide interesting information about Santa Claus. You can also forward these notifications to your e-mail address or send them in the form of messages for free you receive on your mobile phone.
