Family location for iPhone, end-to-end encrypted — free, with no location history. Amya+ adds sat nav to a person, and if you drive a Tesla, your family sees its destination, arrival time and charge while you're in it. Know they're okay. Without being watched. Amya is family location without the creepy bits. See where your people are, when they got there and whether they're on the move — without giving an advertising company a map of your family's life. Your family's location is end-to-end encrypted. Not even Amya can see it. No ads. No selling your data. No behavioural tracking. And the important stuff stays free. Live location. Places. Arrivals and departures. Expectations. Come Get Me. Flight landings. Multiple families, Trips and guests. No subscription required. YOUR PEOPLE, AT A GLANCE Open Amya and know. • See everyone who's sharing with you on one calm, private map • Know whether they're home, moving or somewhere else • See "At Home for 2h" — where they are, and since when • See how fresh every location is at a glance PLACES & EXPECTATIONS Less checking. Less texting. • Save Home, School, Grandma's — wherever matters • Get gentle arrival and departure alerts • Pick a home and get a heads-up when someone's nearly there • Expect someone "home by 6" and hear nothing unless they're not there COME GET ME — FREE Need picking up? One tap. Come Get Me turns your location into a beacon and rings the family. Whoever's free can answer "On my way" and come get you. Come Get Me is free. Always. FAMILY ISN'T ONE SHAPE • Have Home, Mum's, Grandad — whatever family looks like for you • Create a Trip for a holiday, festival or weekend away • Bring Grandma into Home for the weekend with a guest pass that expires automatically KIND TO YOUR BATTERY Together? Your phones don't all need to work. Amya's Piggyback mode lets nearby family phones share the location workload, helping the others save battery. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your family's location belongs to your family. • End-to-end encrypted • Amya can't read your family's location • No ads • No behavioural tracking • No selling your data • No location history — Amya shows where your people are now, never where they've been • Your family's key can ride your iCloud Keychain, so a new iPhone keeps your family — end-to-end encrypted by Apple, and no location ever goes there • Go Dark when you want a moment off the map THE IMPORTANT STUFF STAYS FREE Knowing they're okay is free — in the app and in every alert. Getting to them, and having Amya outside the app, is Amya+. Nav straight to them Full turn-by-turn navigation whose destination is a person — even while they're moving. Try it free on any journey before you decide. Find them on foot When you're close, follow the live arrow and close the gap. Inside the last 150 metres the map lays flat with both of you on it — how far, and which side. Answer Come Get Me Tap "On my way" and Amya takes over — with navigation and a live ETA for the person waiting. Amya outside the app Who's home as a ring on your Lock Screen — one ring per place you choose — and automatic minutes-from-home ETAs. Nothing is held back — open Amya and it's all there, free. One small monthly subscription covers the whole family — the organiser subscribes, everyone's covered — and a subscription of your own goes with you into any family or Trip. It shares with your Apple family too. First week free. SUPERCHARGE AMYA WITH TESLA Drive a Tesla? Connect it in Settings (Amya+). While you're in the car your family sees where you're heading, when you'll arrive and the charge, with a red ring while you drive. Only while your phone is aboard — never the car on its own — and sealed to your family like everything else. Tesla is a trademark of Tesla, Inc. Amya is not affiliated with or endorsed by Tesla.
