Randonautica is a coordinate generator app that leads to mysterious places

A new way to spend your summer is to wander around randomly chosen places, that is, become a randonaut. It’s easy to do: download the free Randonautica app, which will pinpoint your location, prompt you to choose one of the “entropy generators,” and ask you to focus on your intention. You’ll then receive randomly chosen coordinates.



Randonautica users regularly find strange and even frightening algeria number data things: letters, bottles of urine, and even suitcases with corpses. Randonautica users believe that the choice of coordinates is not random. Maybe they are right?

The Randonautica app was launched in February 2020. It has mixed reviews on the AppStore due to frequent crashes. In addition, people who live near bodies of water often receive coordinates underwater - to exclude them from being issued, you will have to pay. The app was created by Joshua Lengfelder, a former circus performer from Texas. He says that he once found an abandoned barrel in the woods and almost stepped on a bright red rattlesnake. “I didn’t even know you could find them in Texas,” he says. Indeed, rattlesnakes are not found there, and, as a rule, they are painted not in red, but in brown or rust color.

According to Lengfelder, Randonautica has already been downloaded 8 million times — 6 million times since the beginning of April.

"People have been locked in their homes for a long time, and this was their chance to break out of their routine. It's one of the few activities that allows you to maintain social distancing and stay safe."

The charm of Randonautica is not only that the application allows you to be outdoors and kill time. In fact, it is an application for finding garbage that is not always cleaned. And it is based on the idea that human thoughts can influence the random number generator. Randonautica combines what we like: if we have the desire, we can do something amazing, hear how the universe speaks to us, and start controlling chance.

Although the app became popular in the spring, when quarantine began, the peak of success came at the end of June. Then a group of teenagers posted a video on TikTok about how Randonautica led them to an abandoned suitcase with a dead body in it. Seattle police later reported that there were two dead bodies there. The event was widely covered in the media. Moreover, hundreds of TikTokers began filming their own adventures, usually overlaid with horror movie music.
