Locus

Share your location end-to-end encrypted on decentralized servers using Nostr
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.
