Your phone's contacts app was designed in a different era. A name, a number, maybe an email. It has no idea that your friend is having coffee two blocks away. Dipity is serendipity, by design. It sits on top of the contacts you already have and gives you a quiet heads-up when you and a friend cross paths, without becoming a way to track anyone. A PRIVATE RADAR FOR YOUR PEOPLE Dipity's radar shows friends who are Here Now or Near. There are no live maps, no pins and no breadcrumbs, only a nudge that says "you two are close." DOUBLE-BLIND, BY DESIGN Neither of you sees the other unless you're both in range. Nobody can look you up, follow you or check where you've been. Dipity keeps zero location history. SAY HI WITHOUT THE PRESSURE When paths overlap, send a quick walkie-talkie note. It vanishes once it's read, and nothing is saved in the cloud. YOU STAY IN CONTROL Organize friends into Orbits. Choose who can know you're nearby, per person or per Orbit. Mute, hide or go incognito anytime. YOUR CONTACTS STAY YOURS Dipity is read-only and matches on-device. We never upload, spam or sell your contacts. No ads, ever. Live more. Scroll less.
