“Your iPhone knowing your every move without your knowledge and without function: bad thing. Your phone knowing your every move so that you can share it with friends, receive geotagged reminders, and keep track of travels: very, very cool”. -Sam Biddle

Today at about 3PM EST, Geoloqi was covered by Gizmodo. Our servers quickly fell under the resulting account signups and location data. We quickly worked to scale them up so that the service could be resumed. Thanks to everyone who downloaded the app! The version out now is very beta. We’re working to improve the user experience, battery life and features. If you have any suggestions, please contact us at feedback at geoloqi dot com!

What makes Geoloqi private?

Geoloqi is an “opt-in” app, meaning that it allows you full control over your location and who you share it with. We plan on rolling out many more features, which you will find in the layers section of the app. If you’d like to build your own Geoloqi layer, or an entire application based on the Geoloqi platform, you can check out the API.
