Find out who of your family or friends is near you so you can meet her/him/them in person for a coffee, shopping, cinema, etc..

This App will notify you about the distance between you and your family or friends. If the person is near you (ca. 500m/550yards), a notification will be send to both of you. And it is up to you if you want or not to meet face to face.

This App is NOT providing information about your location to the other users. It is merely calculating the distance between the people. You can also use the "Invisible mode" to temporally hide yourself.

Your friends, are your contact from your phone book. However, this App is not going to read all your contacts and store them on the server. Only the contacts of your choice will be used, in a way that they are not going to be readable and recognisable by anyone else but you, so that maximum privacy is respected, for you and your family/friends.

For the App to work correctly, you must have also your Location activated in your phone settings.

This App has been created as a pleasure programming exercise after the office hours, so I don't expect you to rate it. Just use it and enjoy it.

IMPORTANT, why so many permissions are needed?

For getting the current location of the device:
LOCATION

For getting an unique device identification to make a distinction between different devices that you would like to use with this App:
READ_PHONE_STATE
TELEPHONY

To show you the names of your friends, instead of just their numbers:
READ_CONTACTS

now I hope that everything is clear.
