An iSharing alternative that does not put you on a live map

Quick answer

iSharing shows a live map of everyone's position. Parages never shares your location; it only checks on your own phone whether you are near a friend's home and taps you if you are.

iSharing hands everyone a real-time map and a panic button, which means your dot moves wherever you go. Parages was built for a different idea. You keep a private list of where your friends actually live, and the app quietly taps you when your day brings you near one of them. The proximity check happens on your phone, so your location never travels to a server. There is no live dot, no trip log, and nobody to follow you.

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.
