An app that tells you when a friend is nearby

Quick answer

You’d think this would be a solved problem.

You’d think this would be a solved problem. It isn’t. Every app that promises to tell you when a friend is nearby asks you to hand over your live location to a whole group first. Parages skips that bargain. You stay in control, nothing is public, and the app just says hello at the right moment.

In one sentence

Parages pings you when you pass near a friend. It tracks nobody.

How it works

1

Add your friends

Their neighborhood, not their exact address. Only you see your list, and nothing is shared.

2

Live your life

No continuous tracking, no shared location. Parages sleeps in your pocket.

3

Get a hello

You pass near a friend, and your phone says “You’re 300 m from Thomas 👋”. Right when it matters.

Frequently asked questions

No. Parages does not track anyone’s phone. You add the neighbourhood where a friend lives, and the app reminds you when you happen to be close.

Your list of friends and their areas live in your account, encrypted, visible only to you. No trip history, no data sold, no surveillance.
