Live map · Philippines

Your neighborhood, live

Giggora is a live map of what’s happening around you right now: vendors selling, neighbors looking for something, riders who run your errands, shops and services, and notices from your barangay or LGU.

Games

Play in the barangay

Five quick games on a make-believe barangay. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for. Your best scores stay on this device.

Everything in these games is make-believe: the barangay, the people and the shops. On the real map, the pins are your actual neighbors.

The map

Everything nearby, on one map

Drag the map anywhere in the Philippines and it loads what’s there: signals, places, and the conversation for that area. You don’t need an account to look, and nobody sees you just for browsing.

  • Search looks everywhere

    The map shows what’s near you. Search finds a match anywhere in the country and shows how far it is before you tap.

  • Distances are straight-line

    “210 meters away” is measured point to point, which around a barangay is close to walking distance. Directions add the real road time.

  • Shops first, landmarks after

    On a busy map, listed shops and live signals load first. Big landmarks like schools fill in after, so what you came for isn’t buried.

  • Fine on a weak signal

    Giggora keeps the last map it loaded, so the map and broadcasts still open on a weak connection, marked so you know they aren’t live.

Offer · Request

Go Live in under a minute

Tap Go Live in the bottom bar, choose Offering or Requesting, pick a category, write a short title and a price, and post. Your pin is on the map for everyone looking at your area.

  • Your pin moves with you. While your signal is live and your location is on, the pin follows you, so a roaming vendor never has to post again to be found.
  • Done for the day? Pause it. Pause takes the signal off the map and keeps the wording, photo and price. Tomorrow, tap Go Live Again.
  • The map stays honest. A live pin that hasn’t moved for three days is shelved on its own, so nobody walks to a stall that left on Tuesday.
  • A second look at the category. Post “aircon repair” under Barbecue Stand and Giggora suggests a better fit. Tap Change to… or Keep mine. You’re never blocked.
  • You choose who can message you. Anyone can see your pin. “Who can contact you?” sets how close people must be to send you a message, from 0.5 to 10 km.

Rider

A rider for your errands

Need something bought, delivered or fetched? Ask the motorcycle riders near you. You set the fare, riders send offers, and you choose who goes. Giggora takes no fee and no commission.

  • Six kinds of errands. Pabili (buy it for me), Pahatid (bring it there), Pasundo (fetch it), Pasuyo (any errand), Padeliver (a parcel) and Pasurprise (a surprise for someone you love). Things only for now, no passengers.
  • You choose the rider. Each offer shows the price, how soon they can come, the motorcycle and its plate, their stars and how many jobs they’ve done. Giggora’s team checks every rider’s motorcycle and plate before they get jobs.
  • Every step, as it happens. Bought, on the way, delivered: you get a notification at each one, and the rider’s receipt shows what the items really cost.
  • See them coming. While the job runs and the rider has Giggora open, you can watch them on a map. Nobody else can.
  • Pay on delivery, then rate. Pay the rider in cash or by GCash: the fare, plus the items if they paid first. Then you rate each other.
  • Fair if plans change. Either side can stop before the items are bought. After that, settle it in the chat, or report a problem.
  • Safety first. Check that the plate matches before you hand anything over, keep the talk in Giggora’s chat, and meet at your gate. Safety tips for customers and riders.

Route

The nearest one, with the road drawn

Tap Find Nearest and type what you need: “ATM”, “botika”, “gasolinahan”, “Jollibee”. Or tap a category, a popular word, or something you looked for before. Giggora finds the nearest one and draws the road route to it.

  • Next takes you to the next nearest. Handy when the first one is closed or out of what you need.
  • The other pins step aside. While a route is up, only places in the same category stay on the map, so you can see the streets. Official broadcasts stay visible. Tap ✕ to bring your pins back.
  • It looks up to 150 km away, and tells you when nothing is that close.
  • Your recent searches stay on your phone. They aren’t kept anywhere else.

Alert

Get told, don’t go looking

Set an alert and Giggora pings you when what you want shows up near you. Keep up to 15, and pause, resume or delete any of them.

The Giggora mascot holds up a phone showing an alert while a pandesal cart passes the window.
Vendor alert

A vendor comes near

Choose a word or a category and a distance, from 100 meters to 2 km. When a match goes live inside it, you get a push notification, even with the app closed.

Place alert

I pass a place

Type words like “gas”, “ATM” or “Jollibee, Mcdo”, or tap Alert me when I’m near on any place. It goes off once, or every time you pass. Your phone works out the distance, so keep Giggora open with location on.

Chat

Talk without giving out your number

Tap a pin, then Send Message. The conversation stays inside Giggora, and neither of you ever sees the other’s phone number. They don’t have to be online. The message waits.

  • The neighborhood wall. Around You is an open board for people nearby, for asking where to find something or telling neighbors a delivery came. Wall posts float over the map as chat bubbles, and the bubbles follow wherever you look.
  • Treat the wall as public. Anyone looking at that part of the map can read it, even without an account. For anything private, message the person directly.
  • Bubbles off with one tap. The chat button on the map clears them, and your phone remembers the choice.
  • Block quietly, report properly. A blocked person can’t message you and isn’t told. A report is what lets the team act on an account.

Broadcast

Notices from your barangay, right on the map

A broadcast is a public notice from a verified local organization: your barangay, an LGU office, a utility, a hospital. Flood warnings, road closures, vaccination schedules. On the map it pulses, so it stands out from ordinary pins.

  • Sent by where you are, not who you are. You get one because your last known position was inside the area the sender chose. The sender never learns who received it, only roughly how many people were in range.
  • Only verified organizations can send. Each needs a Broadcast Authority, granted by hand after Giggora checks who they are.
  • Three levels. Critical, Important and Information. Notices that aren’t critical hold back during quiet hours, 10 PM to 6 AM.
  • Updates in one place. Each broadcast keeps a timeline until it’s marked resolved, and anyone can open it, with or without an account.

Giggora is not an emergency service. In a real emergency, call 911 and follow the authorities.

Circle

Circle, for the people you trust

Add family and close friends with their Giggora code. They can see that you’re active, and your location only if you choose to share it, at the detail you pick, for as long as you decide.

  • Pick the detail. Precise, Approximate (about 150 meters), General area (about 1.2 km), or Status only, which never appears on a map.
  • Shares end on time. 30 minutes, 2 hours, 8 hours, or until you stop it. Stop all sharing ends everything at once.
  • Both of you agree. Circle works both ways only when both people say yes. Strangers never see any of it.
  • Groups for the family or the barkada. Share with a whole group at once, and invite people into it.

Place

Put your shop where people are looking

A place is fixed and always on the map: a shop, a clinic, a barangay hall. Signals come and go. Your place stays.

Add your place

From Profile, then My Place, fill in the details and hours. Then tap the map to drop the pin exactly where your door is, because phone GPS can be 50 meters out. An administrator reviews most listings before they appear, and you can see how many people viewed and contacted it.

  1. 1The number on the listing matches your account.
  2. 2Enter the code we texted you. It expires in 10 minutes.

Already listed? Claim it

Many shops came from OpenStreetMap, or from Giggora encoders mapping the neighborhood. Tap Claim this place. If the shop’s number matches your Giggora account, we text you a 6-digit code. Enter it, and the listing is yours to edit. Nobody else can claim it or take it down.

Sponsor a banner

Your 3:1 banner rides in the Nearby row as the 2nd or 3rd card and sits at the top of Trending Gigs. Only people in the area you choose see it: a few kilometers around your shop, your city, province, region, or the whole country. Each visitor sees at most 10 sponsors, the most local first. You pay for days, not clicks.

You

Private by default

Giggora needs to know roughly where you are to show what’s near you. The rest stays with you.

By default, the spot others see can be up to about 100 meters from where you really are.
  • Your number stays hidden

    Not on your post, not in chat, not anywhere. A shop’s registered number is only ever compared on Giggora’s side, for a claim or a take-down.

  • Blurred by about 100 meters

    That’s the default for the position others see. You can change it in Settings, under Map location precision.

  • No background tracking

    Location is read only while the app is open: on the map, or on Rider while you deliver. Closing the app ends it.

  • One point, never a trail

    Giggora keeps only your latest position, so alerts know what’s near you. It’s overwritten each time and shown to no one. The one exception: while a rider is on a job, their customer sees where they are, until the job ends.

  • No profiling, nothing sold

    Sponsor ads are picked only by roughly where a visitor is, and nobody’s data is shared with sponsors.

  • Leaving is easy

    In Settings, Delete my account deactivates it at once. To have your data erased, email support. That’s your right under the Data Privacy Act.

Meeting someone you found on the map

  • Meet in a public place in daylight where you can.
  • Check the goods before paying. Giggora doesn’t handle money and can’t refund anything.
  • Be wary of anyone who wants payment in advance or wants to move the chat off Giggora.

Also in Giggora

  • Trust that builds itself

    Your trust score rises as you verify your phone, collect good ratings, stay on Giggora and follow the rules. People can see how established you are before they message.

  • Invite your neighbors

    Share your invite code or QR. You earn community points when a friend posts their first signal. Points aren’t money and can’t be cashed out.

  • One inbox for everything

    Alerts, Circle requests and broadcasts land in Notifications. Add Giggora to your home screen so they reach you reliably.

See what’s live near you

Open Giggora on your phone and allow location. The map fills with your neighborhood. No account needed to look.
