## What is Almost Crossed?

What if your paths crossed before you ever noticed?

Almost Crossed helps two people reveal hidden crossings from the past. Stand next to someone, pair your phones, confirm the same code, and discover whether your lives quietly overlapped before you knew.

It feels like opening a secret map that was already there.

No account.
No public profile.
No live tracking.
No cloud history.
No social feed.
No server storing your crossings.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Pair nearby
Open Almost Crossed together and pair your phones with a QR code or nearby connection.

2. Confirm together
Both phones show the same verification code. The reveal only starts when both people confirm.

3. Reveal hidden crossings
Almost Crossed compares approved signals locally and shows only shared crossings. Everything else stays private.

4. Explore the map
See the places where your paths may have crossed, your closest almost-meeting, and your first hidden overlap.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Almost Crossed is built around local sync and mutual consent.

• No account required
• No live location tracking
• No public discovery
• No cloud history
• No server storing your crossings
• No one-sided searching
• Both people must confirm
• Only matching crossings are revealed
• You can delete everything anytime

SOURCES YOU CONTROL

Almost Crossed only uses sources you approve. In the first version, this may include dates and location metadata from items already on your device, such as photos or videos. Original files stay on your device and are not uploaded.

Almost Crossed is for couples, friends, travel partners, and anyone curious about the invisible moments where life came closer than it seemed.

Find out where you almost crossed.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.0.0 — 2026-08-22

- A new cinematic night-sky launch experience, refreshed visual language and more polished native navigation make the app easier to understand and use.
- The first scan has been rebuilt with clearer time-window controls, plain-language privacy guidance, live progress, and a guided completion screen that summarizes photos and videos checked, place memories, years, cities, countries, and trail highlights.
- Photo-library scanning is faster and more responsive, saves progress incrementally, handles large libraries more efficiently, and adapts its workload when the device is warm or Low Power Mode is enabled.
- Place detection and labels are more accurate, with improved city, country, landmark, and approximate-area handling throughout the map, timeline, and scan summaries.
- The personal map and timeline now present memory coverage, places, years, and highlights more clearly, with improved map interactions, summaries, previews, and first-pin guidance.
- Private Reveal has been redesigned, clearer connection and verification steps, a visible encrypted-transfer status, better recovery, and QR fallback when direct discovery is unavailable.
- Nearby and relay synchronization are more resilient, with improved payload handling, session recovery, and safeguards against accidental navigation while a scan or reveal is active.
- Accessibility has been improved with clearer labels, better focus behavior, large-text layouts, stable touch targets, and support for Reduce Motion across the redesigned experience.
- Numerous fixes improve continuity, stability, scan performance, place enrichment, reveal progress, and overall app reliability.

As always, no account is required. Almost Crossed scans dates and available location metadata on your device, never uploads your original photos or videos, and reveals only mutually confirmed crossings.
