A Find My Friends alternative built for Android

Quick answer

Parages gives Android a Find My Friends alternative without the tracking. It keeps your location on-device and only nudges you when you pass near a friend you added.

Apple's Find My Friends never came to Android, and the workarounds usually mean handing a live location feed to some app. Parages takes a calmer route on Android. You keep a private list of roughly where friends live, the proximity check happens on your own device, and you get a quiet nudge when you wander close. Nobody watches a map of you, and nothing about your position leaves the phone in your pocket.

In one sentence

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

How it works

Add your friends

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

Live your life

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

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 never shares or stores your live location. It only checks, on your own phone, whether you are close to a friend you added, and pings you if so.

There will be a free plan that covers the core feature: getting pinged when you pass near a friend. A paid tier will add history and travel stats later.

No. You can add a friend just by noting roughly where they live. They never know they are in your private book.
