How does Beau work for missed connections?
Beau allows you to write a post detailing where and when you saw someone you're interested in reconnecting with. The other person can then 'raise their hand' if they recognize the post, initiating a private conversation only if both parties agree.
Is Beau free to use?
Yes, Beau is completely free to download and use. The app does not have any in-app purchases or subscription fees.
What kind of privacy features does Beau offer?
Beau prioritizes user privacy by not showing your distance, location, or online status. It also blocks screenshots in chat conversations to protect your interactions.
Can Beau help me find people I've been near?
Yes, Beau has an optional background location feature. If enabled, it can quietly notify you when a new post describes a place you were at during that time, without revealing your presence to others.
How does Beau handle communication between users?
Communication is strictly private. No messages can be sent until both individuals have mutually agreed to connect after a 'raised hand' is acknowledged. If either party declines, the connection is ended with no further interaction.
