Quick version. apreet syncs your contacts' names, phone numbers, emails, addresses, job titles and companies. It uses the numbers to find your apreet friends and the addresses to show contacts near your destinations. Names, job titles and companies tell you who someone is. apreet never sends your contact notes off your phone and does not write to your address book. Apart from contact names, your phone's id for a contact and the cities where you can meet them, in your push notifications, which pass through Google and, on iPhone, Apple, it shares your contacts only with an AI assistant you connect.
What apreet uses
- Phone numbers, to identify which of your contacts are also apreet users. You are connected only when each of you has the other's number saved.
- Postal addresses, to map each contact to a city, so you can see who is near your destinations.
- Job title and company, so you recognise who a match is.
- Names, so you actually know who you are seeing.
- Email addresses, synced with the rest of each contact.
- Whether a contact has a note, on Android only, checked on your phone, to help rank your contacts. apreet never sends the note itself off your phone.
- Photos, shown only on your phone. apreet sends just whether a contact has one.
What apreet ignores, on purpose
- The text of your notes, never transmitted. Whatever private context you keep there stays private.
- Custom fields and social profiles, apreet does not need them and does not access them.
- Anniversaries and other dates, never sent. On Android the app reads each date on a contact only to tell whether it is a birthday.
What apreet never does
- Writes to your address book. apreet never adds, edits, or deletes contacts.
- Sells or rents your contacts. Apart from contact names, your phone's id for a contact and the cities where you can meet them, in your push notifications, which pass through Google and, on iPhone, Apple, it shares them only with an AI assistant you choose to connect, and never their numbers, emails, addresses or photos.
- Markets to your contacts. No "find your friends" mass invites. No spam.
How matching works in practice
There are two distinct things apreet can show, and they are not the same. Private destination suggestions: for any contact, apreet uses the city in their address record to map them onto your travel destinations. These are visible only to you, whether or not the contact uses apreet. A mutual itinerary match: this needs you both on apreet, trips that overlap in time and place, and each other's numbers on both phones. Only then does apreet overlay both itineraries so you each see where your paths cross.
