# Whencee > A live map for your group that forgets you the moment you leave.

See each other on a map. Leave, and it's like it never happened.

Whencee is a live-location map for small groups — family finding each other at a fair, friends converging on a restaurant, a crew on a road trip. Start a map, share the 6-character code, and everyone on it sees everyone else, sorted by distance, with a group chat that rides along.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT

• No accounts. No sign-up, ever. Open the app, pick a name, go.

• Nothing is kept. A map lives only while people are on it. When the last person leaves, everything — positions, chat, all of it — is deleted within minutes. There is no history to leak, sell, or subpoena.

• End-to-end encrypted. Give a map a passphrase and names, positions and messages are encrypted on your phone and readable only by your group. The server relays ciphertext it cannot open.

• Fair by design. You see people only while you share your own position — enforced by the server, not the honor system. Nobody lurks invisibly.

• Meeting points. Long-press the map to drop a flag everyone sees, labelled with how far each person is from it.

• Several maps at once. Family in one, friends in another — switch with a tap, each with its own code, passphrase and chat.

• Honest about staleness. Positions fade as they age; the app never shows a confident dot it cannot stand behind.

Location is shared only while you are on a map you joined, with a visible notification the whole time, and it stops the moment you leave. Whencee has no ads, no analytics, and no trackers. ## Rankings - #2,937,673 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED` - `android.permission.SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `com.donshappelle.whencee.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` ## Similar extensions and apps - [wherio: Live Friend Compass](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.wherio) — 117 users - [With Map](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.monthlyjames.withmap) — 22,174 users, 4.27 / 5 - [MeeMap - Meetup Map](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.tryandtry.map) — 177 users - [FlockRadar](https://chrome-stats.com/d/info.klymenko.flockradar) — 13 users - [XCoord](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.walush.xcoord) — 37 users - [Find My Mates](https://chrome-stats.com/d/life.fmm.app) — 13 users - [Jeecei: find your group](https://chrome-stats.com/d/app.jeecei) — 21 users - [W GROUP: Share Live Location](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.weathergpx.group) — 16 users - [GroupRadar](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.groupfinder.app) — 13 users - [Map](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.diws.map) — 2 users - [KnowWhere: Family Locator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.gmsl.lamap.fdlocation) — 14 users - [Findly - Friends Locator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.findly.android) — 2 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.donshappelle.whencee)
