Consent-gated both ways
You choose who you share with and who you watch — separately. One never implies the other, and either side can stop anytime.
Lōc
Share where you are — only with the people you trust,
only when you want.
Ephemeral location sharing for friends and family. Every sharing relationship is consent-gated in both directions, time-boundable, and fail-closed. Deliberately not a broadcast-your-dot-to-everyone-forever app.
iOS · Coming soonThe privacy model
Privacy isn't a setting.
It's the whole design.
One rule decides who can see whom, and every part of the app obeys it. Someone sees your location only if all of these are true:
- 1 You both belong to the same group, and neither has blocked the other.
- 2 You chose to share with that group.
- 3 They chose to watch that group.
- 4 Your sharing hasn't expired (you can share "for the next hour").
- 5 Your master switch is on.
Sharing and watching are independent directions — turning one on never implies the other. Flip the master switch off and no one can see you, even people you'd allowed. Going dark is indistinguishable from a dead battery: Lōc never sends a "stopped sharing" alert to your watchers. The dot just goes stale.
What makes it different
Built privacy-first, not privacy-optional.
⏻
The master switch
One fail-closed switch hides you from everyone, instantly. Set it to auto re-enable after 1 hour, 2 hours, 24 hours, or a week.
◌
Ephemeral by default
Location history is short-lived, and going dark looks exactly like a dead battery. No "stopped sharing" receipts sent to anyone.
⬡
Groups & places
Share per group, not with the world. Drop a place with a geofence and get private arrival & departure notifications.
⦿
Anti-stalking receipts
See who can see you, who's watching live right now, and recent views. A first-class screen — not a buried setting.
Sign in your way
Sign in with Apple or email + password. Verification and password reset are quick one-time codes. You're in straight away.
See it
Calm, flat, and legible.
A deliberately quiet interface — solid colours, no clutter, every control where you'd expect it.

How it works
1
Join a group
Scan a QR code or tap an invite link from someone you trust.
2
Choose to share
Turn on sharing for that group — optionally just for the next hour.
3
Stay in control
The master switch overrides everything, and you can always see who's watching.
Privacy policy
The short version (because it should be short).
- Location only while you're sharing. When your master switch is off, or you're not sharing with a group, nothing is reported.
- Kept briefly. Location history is retained for about a day, then aged out automatically.
- Never sold. Your location is shared only with the specific people you choose, for as long as you choose.
- You can see who can see you. Watchers, live views, and recent views are always visible to you.
- You're in control. Block anyone, leave any group, or go dark instantly — without notifying your watchers.
