Reticulum messaging app with an emphasis on usability. I've designed it to have a similar user experience to popular texting and messaging apps, but it runs entirely on the Reticulum network — meaning it's end-to-end encrypted, has no central server, is extremely censorship resistant, and doesn't actually need internet to work. If you're reading this, chances are you already know about Reticulum, and more than likely are a fan. But a messaging app without people to message with isn't a lot of fun — and what's even less fun is explaining the shortcomings of an app you're trying to get your friends to use. Other Reticulum messaging apps don't have reliable notifications when a message comes in (I've been writing iOS apps for a decade so I know how to get it right, and I wrote a Reticulum extension that will reliably send you push notifications). Other Reticulum apps expect users to have read the Zen of Reticulum (this app eschews technical jargon and explains in plain language what it's doing, with handy info buttons if you want to know more). This app allows you to emoji react to messages, or reply to them in a clear way. All of this means it's easy for novices and experts alike to use. I've also added some neat extra features other Reticulum apps don't provide — for instance, I've included a BLE extension of Reticulum for cases when wifi and LoRa aren't available, as well as a bridge you can use to message *over* a meshtastic device. Finally, it's wire compatible with regular Reticulum, so it will work with other Reticulum clients — they just won't have all the features you do :)
