Your address
Made on your device
So how do people find you?
- Join a public network. Pick a public server in the app. People there show up under Peers, and every message stays end-to-end encrypted.
- Add friends. Scan their contact card QR in person, or paste the address they send you.
- Meet people nearby. Turn on Local network or Bluetooth and people close by show up too, no internet needed.
