Places, part of Context

Know who is home, without tracking anyone.

Places with a radius turn a location into “At Home” or “Near school”. Sharing is opt-in for each person, keeps only the latest point and keeps no history.

Places

Words, not dots on a map.

Save the places that matter, like home, work and school, each with a radius. People who share their location read as “At Home”, “Near school” or “About 8 min from home”. That last one is a straight-line estimate, and the app labels it as an estimate.

The guardrails

Five rules that do not bend.

Off by default

Nobody shares a location until they choose to.

Opt-in per person

Each person decides for themselves.

Only while the app is open

It updates while that person has the app open, or when they tap Share now. There is no background tracking.

Only the latest point

Each new point replaces the last. There is no location history.

It expires

After 4 hours by default. The owner can choose anything from 1 to 24 hours.

Where a location app still wins

If you need continuous tracking in the background, or a tag on a bag or a pet, Kinnomy is not that. It is built to answer “is everyone home?” without keeping a record of where anyone has been.
