Bomp - Voice notes you love

Nahuel Barrios

About this app

Your favorite voice notes, always with you.

Bomp is where you keep your mom's laugh, the boss's catchphrase, the voice note from a friend that always makes you smile. Your collection. Yours. Yours to play anytime — share when you want to.

— Save. Name. Bomp it. —

▸ SAVE
Grab the voice note that made you laugh (or cry) and drop it into your collection. Doesn't matter if it came from WhatsApp, Telegram, or WeChat — if you love it, save it.

▸ NAME
Make it yours. Give it a name only you'd get — the one that makes you smile when you see it in the list. Bomp won't second-guess you.

▸ BOMP IT
Tap it when you need it. A two-second joke can save the day — yours, first. And if you want, share it: someone on the other end laughs out loud.

— Who Bomp is for —

For people tired of long WhatsApp voice notes who want something short, instant. For people who want the voices that matter close at hand. For people who collect moments the way others collect photos. For tight groups with their own inside jokes that nobody else gets.

— Group them your way —

Family, work, the inside jokes from that one group chat — gather your Bomps into collections and filter your list to the one you want with a tap.

— Your most personal ones, locked —

Some voices are just for you. Keep them in the Vault, behind your fingerprint or screen lock. Open one and it plays in a calm, full-screen listen mode — just the waveform and a single play button, no share in sight.

— Truly private —

Your voice notes live on your phone. Bomp doesn't upload, analyze, or share them. What you saved stays with you.

— Just open and go —

No signup, no email, no phone number, no account. Download Bomp, open it, and you're bomping. Zero "create your account" screens. Zero "verify your number" steps. The only thing left is picking the first voice to save.

— Your collection sticks with you —

Android quietly backs your collection up to your personal Google Drive — you don't touch a thing. New phone, stolen phone, factory reset, dropped in a lake: install Bomp on the new device and your collection comes back, names and favorites and pins intact. The cloud keeps it for you.

— Your new vocabulary —

Bomper /bom·per/ (say "BOMP-er")
You, right now. The person who collects voices the way others collect hugs.

Bompear /bom·pe·ar/ (say "bomp-ee-ARR")
To activate a Bomp: to play it or share it. First for you, then for others — if you want.

Bompeable /bom·pe·a·ble/ (say "bomp-ee-AH-bleh")
Those voice memos you love and don't want to lose. Short or long. Funny or tender. Useful.

— Made in the open —

Bomp is free software under the AGPL-3.0 license. Source code is public — anyone can audit, modify, or contribute. Credits live on the "About" screen inside the app.

The voices that matter, ready for you.

A voice from your people isn't a message — it's a hug you can hear.

What’s new

This one I'd been wanting for myself for a long time:

▸ A three-minute voice note no longer has to stay three minutes. Share it into Bomp, tap "Trim this audio", drag the handles over the waveform and keep only the part that matters.
▸ Rotating your phone cut the preview off mid-listen. Who wants that? Now it plays right through.
▸ And I gave the app a bit more life: search eases open now, and the icons fade instead of jumping.

Hugs, Nahu
