A mesh radio companion app for Meshtastic. Connect over BLE or USB, message off-grid, map your nodes, and explore the mesh — no internet required. Built for the field.
Socialmesh is an offline-first companion for Meshtastic and LoRa mesh networks, built to observe, manage, and operate real mesh systems in the field.
It connects directly to Meshtastic devices over Bluetooth or USB and reflects what the mesh is actually doing — packets, hops, airtime, and decay — without pretending LoRa behaves like the internet.
Track node presence as confidence that naturally fades when packets stop arriving. Broadcast short-lived Signals that expire automatically. Explore local and global mesh activity on live maps. Diagnose radios, manage regions and channels, and automate responses — even when completely offline.
Socialmesh is device-centric and mesh-true: the UI mirrors real radio behavior rather than forcing binary "online/offline" states.

NodeDex - Your Mesh Field Journal
Every node you discover on the mesh is now automatically recorded in the NodeDex, a living field journal of the radio world around you.
Each node receives a unique procedural Sigil - a geometric glyph generated from its identity, so no two nodes ever look alike. Nodes also earn a personality Trait derived from real behavior: Wanderers roam, Sentinels hold position, Beacons never sleep, Ghosts appear and vanish, and Relays keep the mesh alive.
Explore the Constellation view to see your mesh as a living star map - nodes as points of light, connections as arcs between them. Tap any node to open its full profile with signal history, discovery timeline, and social tags.
Find NodeDex in the drawer menu under Social.
