Meshages

Text your friends and see them on a map. No cell service needed.

Works with goTenna Mesh radios

How it works.

Each person pairs a goTenna Mesh radio with their iPhone over Bluetooth. Messages and locations travel from radio to radio, so you don't need cell service, Wi-Fi or an account.

See how far away everyone is.

The radar shows each person's distance, direction and status. It works even when the map can't load.

Know your message got there.

Every message shows Sending, Delivered and Seen. Quick voice messages play out loud, so your phone can stay in your pocket.
