Proxa Support

Questions, problems or safety concerns? Email info@yeix.io. We read every message, and safety reports first. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.

Getting started

  • •Confirm you're 18 or older, then add your first name, a color pin and a short note. No sign-up needed.
  • •Tap Go Live and pick how long. While you're Live, other people who are Live within Bluetooth range see your card, and you see theirs.
  • •Allow Bluetooth when asked. Proxa never asks for your location.
  • •Nobody around yet? Tap "Try it with a sample person" to see how waving and chatting work.

Pins, waves and chat

  • •Green means come say hi, yellow means wave first, red means just looking. People with a red pin can't be waved at.
  • •Tap someone to wave. If they wave back, you can send each other short text messages.
  • •Save someone as a contact after you've both waved, and Proxa tells you when they're around again.
  • •Today's people and chats are cleared at the end of each day.

Staying safe

  • •Meet in public places. Tap Tell a friend on someone's card to share who you're meeting and where.
  • •Set a check-in timer. If you don't tap I'm OK in time, Proxa reminds you and helps you text a friend.
  • •The emergency buttons call your local emergency number, or text your emergency contact who you're with and where. Add the contact in Your profile; it stays on your phone. Safety tips are a tap away from Nearby and every person's screen.
  • •Block or report anyone from their card or chat. You won't see them again, and their waves and messages don't reach you, even if they reinstall Proxa.
  • •Reporting also blocks, and opens an email to us with the details so we can follow up.
  • •Proxa has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation. Read our child safety standards.

Common problems

  • •"Couldn't go Live": turn on Bluetooth and allow Proxa to use it in your phone's Settings.
  • •Nobody shows up: they need to be Live too, and within about a room's distance. Check your Filters on Nearby.
  • •No notifications: allow notifications for Proxa in Settings. On Android, keep Proxa's Live notification on while you're Live.
  • •Couldn't wave or send: the other person may have walked out of range or stopped being Live.
