About this app

Remember when you could just knock on a friend's door to see if they wanted to hang out? Porch Light brings that back — digitally.

🏠 THE PORCH LIGHT CONCEPT
Just like a porch light signals "I'm home, come say hi," Porch Light lets your friends know when you're available to talk. No more "is this a good time?" texts. No more phone tag. Just real connection when it works for everyone.

💡 HOW IT WORKS
- Turn on your light when you're free to chat
- See which friends have their lights on
- Knock to call — they get 30 seconds to answer
- If they're busy, it automatically tries the next friend
- When someone answers, you're instantly connected

👥 CIRCLES & FRIENDS
Organize your people into circles like "Family," "Close Friends," or "Work Buddies." Add friends with a simple 6-letter code. See at a glance who's available in each group.

🚪 KNOCK PRIORITY
Set your preferred order for who gets called first. Your best friend, then your sister, then your college roommate — you decide.

📍 AUTO PORCH LIGHT
Set a location and your light turns on automatically when you arrive. Get home from work? Your friends know you're free. Totally optional and private — friends only see that you're available, never where you are.

🌙 QUIET HOURS
Set times when you don't want to be disturbed. Your light stays off automatically during sleep, work, or focus time.

🔒 PRIVACY FIRST
- We never sell your data
- We don't store your calls or conversations
- Location is processed on your device only
- Friends see availability status, nothing more

Built for people who miss spontaneous conversation. No endless scrolling. No leaving voicemails. Just real human connection, one knock at a time.
