A step-by-step guide to getting started and making the most of Geona
Get Geona from the App Store or Google Play and create your profile in just a few taps.
Creating an account is simple and takes less than a minute. You can sign up using your email, Google, or Apple account. The app will request permission to access your location, which is essential for the core functionality of discovering and creating location-based content.
Browse real-time and persistent maps to discover what's happening around you right now.
When you first open Geona, you'll see the Real-Time Map by default, showing all the temporary Geons in your vicinity. You can switch to the Persistent Map to see longer-lasting content like business profiles, upcoming events, and job postings. Pinch to zoom in or out and explore content across different areas.
Share videos, images, and text tied to your location to contribute to the local community.
Tap the '+' button to create a new Geon. You can add photos, record videos directly in the app, or write text-based posts. All content is automatically tied to your current location. Choose a category for your Geon (event, food, job, service, emergency, etc.) to help others find it when filtering content.
Gain experience points as you post, interact, and build your reputation in the community.

See how real users are leveraging Geona to discover local opportunities and connect with their communities.
Geona uses GPS, Wi-Fi, and cellular data to pinpoint your location with high accuracy. You can always manually adjust the placement of your Geons if needed. The app is designed to balance location precision with battery conservation.
Standard Geons disappear from the public map after 1 hour but remain accessible in your profile history. Geons with high engagement automatically get extended lifetimes. Business and Premium users can create Geons with longer predetermined lifespans.
Absolutely! Geona is especially valuable when visiting new places. You'll instantly see what locals are posting about in real-time, including restaurant recommendations, events, and points of interest that traditional travel apps might miss.
