About this app

Central keeps the people you care about together and lets you know they're okay,
without you having to ask every time.

It's not just another messaging app. It's a private space for a family, a
group of friends, or anyone who's decided to keep an eye on each other.

CONVERSATIONS THAT STAY YOURS

Messages, photos, voice notes, and video calls are encrypted from one device
to another. The keys stay on your phone: we can't read
what you write, even if we wanted to.

- Individual and group chats
- Calls and video calls
- Photos and voice notes
- Scheduled messages
- Shared notes: a whiteboard that everyone in the group can draw
and write together, in real time.

SOS

A button that alerts your trusted contacts with your
exact location. It also works from Quick Settings, without unlocking your
phone or opening the app.

Central doesn't contact emergency services: it alerts the people you
choose. For a real emergency, always call 112.

TRAVEL SAFELY

You tell them where you're going and who you want to know. During the journey, your
guards see where you are on a map; upon arrival, they receive confirmation
automatically. If you stop too long or go off-route, they
will notice.

Useful for returning home in the evening, for a hike, or for a child returning
from school.

PERIMETER

Areas that matter: home, school, work. Those who are caring for you receive an alert
when you enter or leave, without having to text "have you arrived?"

"I'M OK" CHECK-IN

A reminder at agreed-upon times. You touch a button and those following you know that
everything is fine. If you don't respond within the allotted time, they are notified.

Designed for those who live alone, for an elderly person, and for those who work in
isolated places.

COMMUNITY AND NOTICEBOARDS

Thematic spaces where you can share reports and information with your
neighborhood or a larger group.

WHY CENTRAL ASKS FOR YOUR LOCATION EVEN WHEN THE APP IS CLOSED

Perimeter, Safe Travel, and SOS only work if your phone can
detect your location while the app is not in the foreground—otherwise, a
zone exit alert would only arrive when you reopen Central, which is
too late to be of any use.

Your location is shared only with people you authorize,
only for features you've activated, and you can revoke it at any time from your profile. We don't sell it, we don't give it to third parties,
we don't use it for advertising.

NO ADVERTISING

Central doesn't display ads and doesn't rely on your data.

YOUR ACCOUNT IS YOURS

You can export your data or permanently delete your account
directly from the app, in two taps, without contacting anyone.

Central is currently in the testing phase. If something doesn't work as expected,
contact us: reports from early adopters are what matter most.
Encrypted messages, SOS, and shared location with those who really matter to you.

What’s new

🍝 The island restaurant is easier: a recipe sheet on the wall lists every recipe by level, with all the ingredients. Customers only order dishes you can actually make, and tapping them shows the recipe. The pot fixes itself if a vegetable runs out.
🏙️ Central City can now be tried without an account: from getcentral.net you can explore the town and play the mini-games in your browser. Send it to your friends and invite them to town!
