Your people,

The mood map

See how everyone’s doing, instantly.

Each friend is a living marker — their avatar, their mood aura, their status emoji, even whether they’re on the move. One look at the map tells you who’s up for something and who needs space.

  • Dual moods + a status emoji per person
  • Live activity — see who’s still, walking, running, cycling or driving
  • Friends who are close cluster into a neat spider-fan
  • Tap any marker to start a chat or see what they’re up to

Private chat

Messages only you and your friends can read.

Direct messages and group chats are end-to-end encrypted, with a unique key that only your devices hold — so not even we can read them. Share photos, videos, voice notes, files, GIFs and polls with total peace of mind.

  • 1:1 DMs and named groups
  • Photos, video, voice notes, files, GIFs & polls
  • Threaded replies, link previews & read receipts

Location, on your terms

Share where you are — only when you want.

Live location sharing is opt-in and per-conversation. Flip to Hidden and you vanish from the map entirely — parked safely out of sight until you choose to reappear.

  • Per-DM and per-group sharing controls
  • One tap to go fully hidden
  • Battery-friendly, throttled updates

Privacy, not an afterthought

Yours to share. Yours to hide.

Badger was built privacy-first. Conversations are end-to-end encrypted, location sharing is always opt-in, and Hidden mode means exactly that.

  • End-to-end encryption we can’t read past
  • Opt-in location, per conversation
  • Hidden mode parks you off the map completely
  • No selling your friends to advertisers
