About this app

This is a beta release of the meshtastic.org project. We'd love you to try it and tell us what you think. You'll need to buy an inexpensive ($30ish) radio from a variety of vendors to use this application, see our website for details. We don't make these devices.

***Please*** if you have questions: post on our forum and we'll work together to fix them (we are volunteer hobbyists).

This post is a good place to get started.

We would really appreciate good Google reviews if you think this is a good project.

Ratings and reviews

Works well. Some of the settings could be more descriptive. EG: The settings for serial RX/TX don't actually indicate that they are GPIO pin numbers... currently it's just a box labeled "TX" or "RX", and a random number. Which is confusing when trying to connect a ttl converter, since the pins on the board that are clearly labeled TX and RX, AREN'T actually what you want to be connecting to.

Good app. Works well in testing, just trying to get things ready to deploy Update. The Android app (and maybe the iOS app too) really needs a way to share an individual channel to another device without having to copy the entire configuration using the "Complete URL". It seems possible to do this with the Web App UI but flipping between WiFi and BT to grab the QR code is really inconvenient.

New user, but it's pretty straightforward. I wish there was some more in app help or explanation of the difference settings and features. Like something that explains the practical results of the different settings. There are lots of YouTube videos and at the website they explain some of it but there is no one place to get the info and I don't have alot of base knowledge. Still, it's a cool project and the app works well!
