* What is it?

Beacons is a mobile app which allows mobile users to track each other on a map, designed with two goals in mind: privacy and simplicity.

* How does it work?

Suppose you and your friends want to meet somewhere and keep track of everyone's location all the time. It's simple: share a Beacons session! Here are the three steps to do that:

1. CREATE: You initiate a Beacons session and get a 6-character session key from the server. Upon creating the session, you become visible on the map.

2. SHARE: Share the session key with your friends by phone, SMS or e-mail.

3. JOIN: Your friends join the session using the shared key and become visible on the map as well. All participants' positions will change in real time, as they move.

No signup. No setup. Fully operational right after starting the app.

* Privacy

Beacons respects your privacy by design:

- it doesn't access your accounts, of any kind

- it doesn't ask you about your private data

- it never exchanges any personal data with the server

Savvy users are welcome to check it using a network monitor.
