✨ The app for people who care and want to be close

The people who matter to you, always close.

Create circles, share your location, follow trips and get the alerts that matter about the people in your life.

🧩 A circle for every part of life

From family routine to Sunday training

Every circle is closed and has its own places and alerts. You choose what you share with whom.

🏡 Family

Know they arrived, without asking

Home, school and work as places.

The alert arrives when someone comes in or leaves, and the map shows who is on the way.

🏃 Running group

Everyone at the same training

Who is already at the park, who is still coming.

And afterwards, everyone's route, with distance and time, to compare within the group.

👭 Meeting friends

Who is arriving, without the "where are you?"

The place set once.

Each one sees the others on the way, by car, on foot or by bike, and nobody needs to say they are close.

Separate circles: what you share with one never shows up in another.

🆘 SOS

One tap, and the people who matter know where you are

The SOS button instantly alerts everyone in the circle you chose, with your exact position and address. It works even when sharing is off.

  • Whoever receives it sees you on the map and opens directions in Google Maps or Waze with one tap.
  • The alert stays on until you end it yourself; nobody turns off someone else's SOS.
  • When you end it, everyone is told that all is well.

Frequently asked questions

How Gotyu works day to day.

Does Gotyu drain the phone battery?

No. Gotyu uses the phone's own motion detection and only turns on precise GPS while you're moving. At home or at work it barely uses any.

Can I pause my location whenever I want?

Yes. Inside the app, in one tap: "Pause for 1 hour" or turn sharing off. Whoever sees you is seen by you, and whoever turns it off is shown as off, never as if they were still there.

Can people in one circle see the members of my other circles?

No. Every circle is closed: people in your family circle don't see your work circle, and vice versa.

Does the app work when travelling abroad?

Yes. Wherever the phone has internet, your position keeps being shared with your circle.
