A Life360 alternative that doesn’t track you

Quick answer

Life360 was built to watch people.

Life360 was built to watch people. Permanent location, location history, a battery that melts by noon. Plenty of families use it and feel uneasy about it. If that’s you, Parages works the other way around. Nobody is followed. You simply keep a private list of where your friends live, and the app taps you on the shoulder when you happen to be close to one of them.

In one sentence

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

How it works

1

Add your friends

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

2

Live your life

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

3

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.
