Area-Based Sharing

Define geographic areas where your group can see each other. Outside the area? You're invisible. Simple as that.

πŸ”’

Visible Only Where You Choose

Family groups can stay visible to each other everywhere. Every other group β€” Friends, Team, Event, Neighbors β€” is area-only: you're invisible until you're actually in a shared area.

πŸ‘₯

Groups That Work

Family, colleagues, teammates β€” create groups for different parts of your life with separate areas and privacy settings.

πŸ””

Smart Notifications

Know when someone arrives at or leaves an area. Granular control over every notification type.

πŸ—ΊοΈ

Real-Time Map

See group members on a live map with their last-known location and activity status.

πŸ”—

Invite by Link

Share a link through iMessage, WhatsApp, or any app. Anyone who taps it gets a preview and joins in one tap β€” no account needed first.

Start with a template that fits

Pick what the group is for, and PositionGuard sets the right privacy model automatically β€” no settings to hunt for.

Area-only
Start a group template picker showing Family, Friends, Event, Team, and Neighbors Creating a Family group β€” members can see each other anywhere Creating a Friends group with area-only visibility and a discoverable toggle Creating a Neighbors group β€” neighbors can only see each other inside group areas

Family is the one exception β€” everyone in it can see each other anywhere, no area required, like an always-on family circle. Every other template keeps you invisible until you step inside a shared area.

Stop texting "are you here yet?"

Discover shows you public groups already active nearby β€” a pickup game, a dog park meetup, a downtown hangout β€” before you drive over. Join in one tap, no invite needed.

You're only visible to a public group while you're actually in its area. Everywhere else, you're invisible β€” same area-only rule as any other group.

How it works

1

Create a group

Invite people by phone number, contact, or shareable link.

2

Define your areas

Draw circles on the map β€” home, work, school, the park, your vacation house.

3

Stay connected

See each other when you're in shared areas. Invisible when you're not.

Your location. Your rules.

Unlike other location apps, PositionGuard doesn't track you everywhere. Our area-based architecture means your position is only shared where and when you decide.

No ads. No data selling. Ever. Your precise coordinates stay yours β€” your group only sees your presence at shared places.
