Pome - Local Chat & Games
Works with no signal at all
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Chat and games for whoever is in the room. No internet, no signal, no accounts. Open it and see who is nearby, or invite friends to chat and play.
Pome is chat and games for the people around you. The same room, the same house, the same building. It works with no internet, no signal and no accounts, because your phone talks straight to theirs.
Open it and you see whoever is nearby. Say something and they see it. There is nothing to sign up for and nothing to log into.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Talk to everyone nearby at once, or one to one.
• Make a room for a conversation. Leave it open, put a passcode on it, or make it invite only.
• Play a game at a table in any room: Link 4, chess, checkers, Go, Reversi, Crazy Eights, Hearts, Spades, Bluff and more.
• Nobody around? Every game seats house bots, so there is always someone to play.
• Draw a sticker, make a face for yourself, and send both.
HOW IT WORKS
Phones connect straight to each other over Bluetooth and local Wi-Fi. Messages hop from phone to phone to reach further, so a room full of people carries further than any single phone could. No servers are involved at any point.
That also means Pome only reaches people who are physically near you. There is no directory, no search, and no way for a stranger across town to find you.
GOOD FOR
Dorm floors and lecture halls. Long flights and road trips. Campsites, festivals, basements, and anywhere the bars run out. A kitchen table where everyone would rather play something than pass one phone around.
WORTH KNOWING
• If nobody is nearby, your lobby will be empty. That is how it works, not a fault.
• Messages live on the phones that saw them and nowhere else.
• A language filter is on by default. Anyone can be blocked and reported instantly, and everything they have said disappears from your phone the moment you do.
• No ads.
