Te va a mostrar tu posición actual.

This sentence means “It’s going to show you your current location.” It is commonly used when a device or app is about to display a map or GPS coordinates. The construction “va a + infinitive” expresses a near‑future action, and “te” indicates that the information will be shown to the listener.

Cultural Tip
In Spanish‑speaking countries, people often prefer the informal “tú” form when speaking with friends, but in a formal setting (e.g., a tech support call) you would switch to “le” – “Le va a mostrar su posición actual.” Also, note that “posición” is more common in technical contexts, while “ubicación” is used in everyday speech.
