Peer-to-peer chat app that messages over local Bluetooth LE mesh or internet Nostr relays, with no accounts or central servers.
Why you might care
Useful when you need messaging without phone numbers or a central server, including offline over Bluetooth in range of nearby devices. Native iOS and macOS app with Noise Protocol encryption for mesh and location-based channels over Nostr; the README notes the mesh uses a persistent device identifier, so metadata exposure to nearby radios is a real tradeoff.
