You can connect with others to then share contact details and locations with them, see your contacts on a map, with strong security & privacy throughout.
Before you can share with others, there are different ways to get into contact.
If you have an existing channel of trusted communication, an encrypted messenger like Signal or others, you can send someone a personal, secret invite link.
You can advertise to others who may or may not have Reunicorn yet that you are on Reunicorn by adding a public profile link to your social media profiles, e-mails signature, or where ever you like. With that profile link, others can create an invitation for you to share with them on Reunicorn, which they need to send you via an established communication channel.
You can usually find out from what your contacts share with you, whether any two of your contacts are also connected via Reunicorn. For details on how this works in a privacy preserving way, see the corresponding section on our cryptography page.
Any two contacts that have not indicated to you that they know each other, can be introduced to each other. You can add an optional introduction message to let the two introduced contacts know why you wanted them to get into contact. When you receive an introduction proposal, you can accept or decline the introduction.
Upon request, there is an option for existing communities to onboard their members to Reunicorn already connected, omitting the necessity of individual connections via any of the above mentioned ways. For each community member a personal invitation link is generated, which upon use connects them to any other invitation links from the same batch.
Once connected with others you can share information with them, privately and securely.
You can share the following contact details with others:
When you (plan to) visit a location, you can schedule a location between a start and end date, or check-in for a chosen duration at your current location. There is no live location sharing for now.
You can add contacts to any number of circles to group them. When you share contact details or locations with a circle, all contacts in that circle receive the shared information. Contacts receive the combination of information that is available via all of the circles they are part of.
All your as well as your contacts’ locations are visible on one integrated map;
Empowering you to see who you can meet where.
You can see details like the exact address or for temporary locations the start and end times when you tap on a location marker.
To restore your profile and contacts when you are switching to a different phone, you can save a secret text - ideally separate from your phone - which can be used to restore your account with any fresh installation of Reunicorn.
All shared information is end-to-end encrypted, only for your contacts to see. Your connections to others are not observable to outside parties. If you are interested in more technical details on this, check out or cryptography page.
