Invradar buzzes you the moment you walk past a Space Invader mosaic, so you can explore your city without staring at a map. Invader is the French street artist behind thousands of pixel-art mosaics installed in cities around the world. Invradar turns spotting them into a game: walk around with location on, and get notified the instant you're close enough to one — no map to babysit, no tab to keep open. HOW IT WORKS - Turn on location: Invradar quietly watches your position in the background, even when the app is closed. - Get buzzed nearby: walk within range of a mosaic and a notification lets you know it's close. - Scan & collect: open the app when it suits you, flag the invader as scanned, and keep exploring. EVERYTHING IN THE APP - Radar: a live compass of every invader nearby, with distance and direction relative to which way you're facing, so you're never guessing which way to walk. - Map: a full map of every invader, there whenever you want to browse it. - Invadex: your personal collection — scanned vs. still-to-find, invader by invader, each with its own page and photo. - Stats: track how many invaders you've spotted nearby and watch your hunting streak grow. - Sync: sign in to keep your scanned/not-scanned flags in sync across every device you hunt from. PREMIUM A single one-time payment, lifetime access: unlimited notifications, custom notification range, hidden scanned invaders, chat & hints, and automatic scan detection.
