Ikune - Live Location, Meet Up

Ikune shares your location only while you are on your way to meet someone.

No more "I just left" and "where are you?". One map answers both.
Sharing stops on its own when the timer runs out, and nothing is kept afterwards.

WHEN TO USE IT
- Meeting a friend at a station or in a busy street
- Finding someone you lost in a crowd
- Knowing when family is nearly home
- Meeting up with someone at an event or on a trip

FEATURES

One tap to start
Press the Ikune button and sharing starts with the person you shared with last. Pick someone else from your friends list. You share with one person at a time.

It stops by itself
Choose 15 minutes, 30 minutes or an hour, or set anything from 5 minutes to 3 hours. Sharing ends automatically, so you can never forget to turn it off.

See them on the map
When someone shares with you, you see them move in real time on the map, with the distance between you. Share back and you both appear.

Add friends with an 8-digit ID
No phone number, no email address. Share eight digits, or let someone scan your QR code.

Notifications
You are told when a friend starts sharing, and when sharing ends.

Home screen widget
Start sharing from the widget without opening the app.

Battery saver
Update less often to make the battery last longer.

PRIVACY
- Sharing is always time limited and stops on its own
- You can stop it by hand at any moment
- Locations are deleted when a session ends. No history is kept
- No home address or other personal details are collected
- No account required

Your location goes only to the person you are sharing with, only while you are sharing.

Location accuracy depends on your device and signal. Underground or indoors it may differ from where you actually are.
