MeshCore
Off-Grid Mesh Messaging
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Apple Native MeshCore client for iPhone and Mac. Off-grid encrypted messaging over LoRa radio with background Bluetooth, saved credentials, and remote device management.
MeshCore — Off-Grid Mesh Messaging
Send encrypted text messages without cellular service, WiFi, or internet using MeshCore LoRa radios. MeshCore creates a decentralized mesh network where messages hop between radios to reach their destination — even miles away.
FEATURES
Direct Encrypted Messaging — Send private messages to other MeshCore users. End-to-end encrypted by the radio hardware.
Group Channels — Join public hashtag channels or create private encrypted channels for your team, family, or community.
Room Servers — Connect to room servers that store messages. Come back later and catch up on what you missed, like a mesh bulletin board.
Remote Management — Manage repeaters and room servers directly from the app over LoRa. View settings, change configurations, monitor status — all over the mesh, no internet needed.
Background Bluetooth — Stay connected to your radio even when the app is in the background. Get notifications when new messages arrive.
Favourite Contacts — Star important contacts so they're always at the top of your list. Syncs to your radio so favourites persist across any MeshCore client.
Custom Nicknames — Rename contacts with friendly names like "Dad's Radio" or "Mountain Repeater". Stored locally on your device.
Saved Credentials — Securely save login passwords for repeaters and room servers in Apple Keychain. Auto-login on reconnect.
Radio Presets — Quickly configure your radio with community-recommended settings for your region. Presets for USA/Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and more.
Light and Dark Mode — Full adaptive theme support with manual override. Designed for readability in any lighting condition.
Native Apple Experience — Built from the ground up in Swift and SwiftUI for iOS and macOS. Not a web wrapper or cross-platform port.
