SocialMesh is an offline-first companion for Meshtastic and LoRa mesh networks, built to observe, manage, and operate real mesh systems in the field. Requires a Meshtastic device - SocialMesh connects directly to Meshtastic radios over Bluetooth or USB and reflects what the mesh is actually doing: packets, hops, airtime, and decay.

Cloud Sync is an optional monthly or yearly subscription that backs up your NodeDex, automations, custom widgets, and profile across all your devices. Without it, data stays on-device only. Premium Features (Optional) - Theme Pack: 12 accent colors - Ringtone Pack: searchable library of thousands of RTTTL ringtones - Automations: advanced rules and scheduled broadcasts - IFTTT Integration: connect to 700+ apps and services The app is device-centric and mesh-true: the UI mirrors real radio behavior rather than forcing binary "online/offline" states. Track node presence as confidence that naturally fades when packets stop arriving. Explore local and global mesh activity on live maps. Diagnose radios, manage channels, and automate responses - even when completely offline. Terms of Use: https://socialmesh.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://socialmesh.app/privacy
