A rule
Say it in one sentence.
Pick a friend and you're done. Any part of the sentence opens to change it, and where and when stay out of the way until you want them.
Your friend says yes first. Nothing is shared until then.
Open beta on iPhone
You set when you can be found. Presence tells a friend you're close only at the place and time you both chose. No live map, no always-on tracking.
The closed beta is over. A friend's invite brings you straight in, and everyone else joins a few at a time.
How it works
A rule
Pick a friend and you're done. Any part of the sentence opens to change it, and where and when stay out of the way until you want them.
Your friend says yes first. Nothing is shared until then.
A yes
There's nothing more to do. Keep your phone with you, and Presence does the remembering for both of you.
Right place, right time
When a friend's rule finds you close, you hear about it. Say you're here, or not now. Jamie learns nothing about where you are until you say hi.
Being told never gives a friend away.
Say hi
Make a plan, or just wave. When the two hours are up, the thread closes on its own.
Home
Home shows who's near right now and what each of them sees. Pause everything with one tap, for as long as you choose.
