MeshRoute turns nearby Apple devices into a private local network β€” no router, no hotspot, no internet required. Whether you’re gaming with friends, moving files across devices, or networking in a place with no Wi‑Fi, MeshRoute brings every Apple device onto one shared LAN using Apple’s peer-to-peer wireless technology (the same protocol used by AirDrop). WHAT YOU CAN DO β€’ Host or join a nearby MeshRoute network in seconds β€’ Get a real local IP on every device β€” apps that work on a normal LAN just work β€’ Play local multiplayer games without a shared Wi‑Fi network β€’ Share files with Mesh Drop Box while you’re connected to the same mesh HOW IT FEELS Open MeshRoute, host a network, and let nearby devicces scan and join. Each device gets an address on your private subnet. From there, ping, play, stream locally, or transfer files, all over a direct device-to-device link. BUILT ON APPLE NETWORKING β€’ Peer-to-peer wireless β€’ Standard IPv4 networking for apps you already use β€’ Optional Mesh Drop Box for session-based file sharing between connected peers Privacy-minded by design: traffic stays between your nearby devices. No account required to start a local mesh.* * Purchases and premium features may use App Store billing. Internet is only needed for optional upgrades, not for local mesh networking.

It doesn't route internet traffic, hide your IP, or change your location. There are no servers, relays, or proxies, your data stays directly between your nearby devices. MeshRoute does not collect, store, or transmit any of your data.
