A location app that works without tracking you

Quick answer

Parages is a location app without tracking. It keeps your position on-device, logs no history, and only nudges you when you pass near a friend you added.

Most apps with location in them treat tracking as the point, logging where you go and beaming it somewhere. Parages was built on the opposite idea. It uses location only on your phone, never to follow you and never to send anything out. You note where friends live, the device checks proximity by itself, and a nudge tells you when you are near. No history is kept, no map is shared, and no movement of yours is recorded anywhere else.

In one sentence

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

How it works

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.
