Points of interest, all around you
Proxigem shows you the notable places nearby — landmarks, history, curiosities — each with a live arrow pointing the way and the distance to reach it. It works offline, worldwide, with no account and no tracking.
Free · launching soon on Android and iOS.
Why Proxigem
Everything Proxigem needs lives on your phone, so it answers "what's around me?" instantly — even with no signal.
Your phone's compass turns every nearby place into a pointer and a distance — just look up and walk toward it.
A worldwide base map is built into the app. No signal, no roaming, no problem — nothing is fetched to show what's nearby.
Millions of notable places on every continent — drawn from Wikipedia, Wikidata, GeoNames and national heritage registers.
Tap a place for a longer story, and download detailed country packs when you want deeper local coverage.
No sign-in, no ads, no tracking. Your location is used on-device to find nearby places and never sold or shared.
Every entry carries its source and licence. Open data in, attribution shown for each place — nothing scraped, nothing invented.
Zero setup
No account, no configuration. Open the app and it's already looking around you.
Grant location once and Proxigem centres on where you are — anywhere on Earth, online or off.
A ranked list of notable places appears, closest first, each with its category, distance and a bearing arrow.
Point your phone and walk. Tap any place to read its story or open it on a map.
Launching soon
