Everything you need to stay connected

Built for families, friend groups, and anyone who wants to stay in touch.

📍

Real-Time Location

See your circle members on a live map with smart battery-efficient tracking that adapts to whether you're walking, driving, or stationary.

👥

Circles

Organize your contacts into circles — family, friends, coworkers. Each circle has its own map view, members, and privacy settings.

Temporary Circles

Create time-limited circles for meetups, trips, or deliveries. They auto-expire after 24 hours so you only share when you need to.

💬

Circle Chat NEW

Send messages within your circles. Stay coordinated without switching apps — text is delivered in real-time via WebSocket.

🚨

Emergency SOS NEW

One-tap SOS sends your exact location via SMS to your emergency contacts and push alerts to all your circle members.

🔒

Privacy Controls NEW

Per-circle sharing toggles, approximate location mode, and schedule-based sharing so you control exactly when and how you're seen.

📨

Circle Invitations NEW

Invite people by phone number. They get a notification to accept or decline — no one gets added without their consent.

📱

Background Updates

Motion-aware location tracking that runs efficiently in the background. Adapts GPS accuracy based on activity to save battery.

📜

Location History NEW

30-day location history with paginated timeline. See where you or your circle members have been, with automatic data expiry.
