GhostChat lets you send messages to people nearby without Wi-Fi, cellular, or internet of any kind, just Bluetooth.
HOW IT WORKS
Every device running GhostChat automatically forms a mesh network with nearby devices. Messages hop from phone to phone, traveling up to 5 hops, so you can reach people even if they're not directly next to you.
PERFECT FOR
• Music festivals and concerts where cell networks are overloaded
• Hiking, camping, and backcountry adventures
• Emergency and disaster scenarios when infrastructure is down
• Events, conferences, or venues with poor connectivity
• Anyone who wants private, off-grid communication
PRIVACY FIRST
No accounts. No sign-ups. No cloud. Every message is stored only on your device and the recipient's device , nothing passes through a server. GhostChat never transmits your messages over the internet.
FEATURES
• Bluetooth mesh networking , messages relay through nearby devices automatically
• Broadcast messages to all nearby users, or send directly to a specific person
• Local message history with search and filtering
• Live peer dashboard showing who's nearby and their signal strength
• Lightweight onboarding , just pick a display name and go
• Works completely offline, even in airplane mode (with Bluetooth on)
OPEN & TRANSPARENT
GhostChat is intentionally simple. There's no analytics, no ad tracking, no account system, and no backend. What's on your device stays on your device.
