Locus is a free, open source app for Android and iOS that allows you to share your location live. It encrypts your location end-to-end, meaning that no one, not even we, can read it. It stores the location decentralized on multiple servers of your choice using Nostr, meaning that you are not locked to a service. No authentication required.

Locus is currently not in active development. I am unable to work on it as much as I would like. I will still fix security issues and maintain it, but there will not be any new features in the foreseeable future. I am open for any Pull Requests.

Download

iOS currently does not have a release. You will need to build and install the app yourself.

Locus comes in two variants for Android:

When downloading from GitHub, you can choose from both options.

Supporting Locus

You can support Locus in various ways:

Contribute to the project

Add a new feature or fix bugs.

Add translations

Translate Locus into your language so that other people can use it more easily.

Donate

It might sound crazy, but if you would just donate 1$, it would totally mean to world to me, since it's a really small amount and if everyone did that, I can totally focus on Alibi and my other open source projects. :)

You can donate via GitHub Sponsors or via crypto currencies.
