Happenstance allows you to see if any of your friends or contacts are physically close to you at that point in time. With so many digital connections, and with all of them in constant motion, it is difficult to keep track of where everyone is, meaning we frequently miss the opportunity to meet these contacts in person, when they happen to be closeby. At the same time, privacy and security concerns means you do not want to broadcast your location without filters. With Happenstance, you can โข Share your location selectively and anonymously โข Invite contacts (friends, family, customerrs, etc) to join your closed groups โข Receive messages from those contacts who are within a specific radius โข Respond to those messages if you want, if not, you can ignore them.
