Know when friends
are close.
Vicinity notifies you the moment a friend is in your area — without revealing your exact location. Real connection, real privacy.
How it works
Simple. Private. Human.
Proximity Alerts
Get a gentle notification when a friend enters your area. No coordinates, no surveillance — just a nudge.
Privacy by Default
Vicinity never shares your exact GPS. Your location is intentionally fuzzy — always. Not a setting, a principle.
Real-Time Presence
See who's around in real time — close enough to make plans, not close enough to feel watched.
You're In Control
Go dark anytime. Choose exactly who sees your presence. Granular visibility, zero friction.
Smart Background Updates
Location is checked intelligently to save battery. Accurate when it matters, quiet when it doesn't.
Social, Not Surveillance
Built for spontaneous moments with actual friends. Not follower counts, not feeds — just proximity.
