Crowd Compass Companion App

Stay connected with your crew — even off the grid. Crowd Compass pairs with your Crowd Compass device to give you real-time GPS friend tracking, mesh messaging, and offline maps, all without Wi-Fi or cell service. Built for festivals, backcountry trips, and anywhere the network ends.

KEY FEATURES:

Real-Time GPS Friend Tracking

Each Crowd Compass has a built-in GPS. See every friend's live location on an interactive map — positions are relayed over the mesh radio with no cell towers required. Your phone's GPS automatically supplements the compass for even better accuracy.
Off-Grid Messaging

Send and receive text messages through the mesh radio network — no Wi-Fi or cellular needed. Get push notifications so you never miss a message.
Offline Festival & Area Maps

Download maps for any area so you never lose your bearings. Browse festival maps with stages, vendors, restrooms, and points of interest — all available offline.
Drop Waypoints

Long-press the map to drop a named pin. Waypoints sync to your Crowd Compass so your friends can see them too.
LTE Performance Boost

When you have cell or Wi-Fi, bridge the mesh to the cloud to extend your group's range beyond radio distance.
Personalize Your Compass

Set your color and display name. Load pre-written quick messages onto your Crowd Compass so you can send them without your phone.
Radio Profiles

Choose a radio profile to balance range vs. speed for your environment.
Effortless Group Pairing

Share and join groups instantly with QR codes — no need for everyone to be in the same place.
Runs in the Background

Keeps your Bluetooth connection alive and locations flowing even when the app isn't on screen.
Automatic Firmware Updates

Update your Crowd Compass firmware over Bluetooth to unlock new features and keep it performing at its best.
