Description by Sylvester Corp (from Google Play)
Connect your phone to MeshCore LoRa hardware and communicate completely off-grid. Send messages, share locations, and stay connected when cellular networks aren’t available.

MeshCore Open is a free, open-source Android app that turns your MeshCore LoRa device into a powerful mesh communication system. It’s built for reliability, privacy, and independence—ideal for remote travel, emergency preparedness, events, or building your own private network.

FEATURES

Off-Grid Messaging
Send and receive text messages over LoRa radio with no cell towers, no internet, and no monthly fees. Messages automatically hop through nearby nodes to reach contacts miles away.

Channels
Join public channels or create private, encrypted channels for group conversations. Great for teams, communities, and coordinated events.

Location Sharing
Share your GPS location with contacts and see everyone’s position on the map in real time.

Interactive Map
View contacts on a built-in map with offline tile caching, so it keeps working even without internet access.

GIFs & Media
Add GIFs to messages when an internet connection is available (optional).

Repeater Management
Configure and monitor MeshCore repeater nodes to extend coverage and improve network reliability.

Background Connectivity
Stay connected while the app runs in the background and receive notifications for incoming messages.

Dark Mode
Full dark theme support for comfortable use day or night.

HOW IT WORKS

Pair your phone with a MeshCore LoRa device via Bluetooth

The app communicates directly with your MeshCore hardware

Messages are transmitted over LoRa radio

Other nodes relay messages through the mesh to reach their destination

REQUIREMENTS

MeshCore-compatible LoRa hardware (sold separately)

Android device with Bluetooth Low Energy

Location permission (required by Android for Bluetooth scanning)

OPEN SOURCE & PRIVACY

MeshCore Open is 100% open source.
No ads. No tracking. No data collection.

All messages and data stay on your device and your mesh network. You can view the source code, report issues, or contribute via the project’s GitHub repository.

PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED

Bluetooth: Connects to your MeshCore device

Location: Required by Android for Bluetooth discovery (not used for tracking)

Notifications: Alerts you to new messages

Internet: Used only for optional features like map tiles and GIFs

Perfect for hiking, camping, off-grid living, emergency preparedness, events, farms, ranches, and anywhere cellular service is unreliable.

Note: MeshCore Open requires MeshCore LoRa hardware to function. The app alone cannot send or receive mesh messages.

Comments on Meshcore Open for Android

★★★★★ Brett Stevens · May 20, 2026
Much better than the original, adds features that have been sorely needed, and improves others that were fairly bare-bones on the original version.
★★★★☆ Vladimir Premeru · Jul 11, 2026
I understand this is work in progress. However, today I have had two false positives - DMs marked with double green checkmarks as delivered, path unknown, but not delivered. I know because both devices are mine. This is one of the worst possible outcomes in communication. I am looking forward to coming back to this app someday, when these issues are solved. The potential is fantastic. Cheers
★★★★★ Henry Foord · Aug 10, 2026
Runs smoother then ripple radio and the original mesh core. Interface feels like a real app, its simple and well-structured so that anyone can use a mesh core flashed lora radio. It also brought my interest back to my lily go deck. No logger does it feel bogged down and boring. Ya gotta try it, tell your friends and leave a review! These guys are doing something good here.
★★☆☆☆ Chris S · Aug 29, 2026
I don't understand why when I go into the telemetry settings of a contact it updates the information and location, but the map view shows the same contact in an old location and old update time. Have you tested this ?
