NearBee
NearBee is the best alternative to Google Nearby for small businesses and proximity marketing resellers. NearBee is a beacon-aware app that lets users discover proximity-based relevant content making it the best Nearby alternative. NearBee uses the Physical Web technology to scan for Eddystone URLs and displays the notification on both Android and iOS devices. Nearby Notifications were delivered silently, repeatedly and became extremely spammy leading to a poor user experience which led to Google announcing its shut down. NearBee, on the other hand, is void of these issues and provides a seamless, non-passive, rich notifications complete with visuals to the end-user. NearBee alerts the users when proximity-based relevant content is available through a ringtone or vibration which can be determined by the end user. This increases the possibility of a consumer looking at and clicking on a notification as compared to silent Nearby notifications.
