Common questions

How do I add friends?

Tap Add Friend on the Radar screen, or open the Friends tab and choose Find Friends. Gamma uses your existing iPhone contacts to suggest friends who already have Gamma — no separate signup or account is needed.

Why isn't my location showing up on the radar?

Check that location permission is granted:

1. Open iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services
2. Make sure Location Services is on
3. Find Gamma in the list and choose While Using the App
4. Inside Gamma, open the Me tab and confirm "Appear on friends' radar" is on

How do I drop a beacon?

On the Radar screen, tap and hold on a spot to drop a beacon there. You can add a label, an emoji, and an optional expiry time. Friends will see your beacon on their radar.

How do I send a voice drop?

Tap the microphone icon on the radar to record a quick voice clip (up to 15 seconds). You can send it to a specific friend or attach it to a beacon.

How do I block or report someone?

Open the Friends tab, tap on the person, then choose Block or Report. Reports are reviewed promptly. Blocking is immediate and stops all sharing in both directions.

Why am I not getting notifications?

Check your iOS notification settings:

1. Open iOS Settings → Notifications → Gamma
2. Make sure Allow Notifications is on
3. Confirm Banners, Sounds, and Badges are enabled if you want them

How do I delete my account or my data?

Gamma has no separate account — your data is tied to your Apple ID via iCloud. To remove your data:

• Quickest: Delete the Gamma app from your iPhone. Local data and your radar visibility are removed immediately.
• Full deletion: Email msksoftware@yahoo.ca and we'll manually remove any CloudKit records associated with your account.

What about my privacy?

We don't run any servers, don't use analytics SDKs, don't show ads, and don't share your data. See our full Privacy Policy for details.

Need help with something else?

Email msksoftware@yahoo.ca with as much detail as you can. Include your iOS version, the Gamma version (Me tab → bottom of screen), and a description of what happened. We'll get back to you within 1–2 business days.
