About this app

NTsocial is a decentralized communication app that creates a resilient, peer-to-peer community platform using a Bluetooth mesh network. It is designed to operate entirely without internet access or cellular service, providing a robust solution for communication in any situation.

Our key features include:

Infrastructure-Free Communication: NTsocial uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to build a self-healing mesh network. This allows for direct peer-to-peer messaging and temporary message storage in nodes, enabling city-scale communication without relying on any external infrastructure.

Unique Geometric Identity: Your identity is represented by a fixed Peer ID, which is automatically converted into a unique, Bauhaus-style geometric avatar. This serves as your identifier and the foundation for future encrypted communications.
Modern Community Structure: Engage in conversations with a nested comment structure that supports unlimited reply levels, similar to modern social media platforms.
Intuitive Interface: Navigate seamlessly through five main tabs: Public for open discussions, Channels for topic-based groups, Chat for managing conversations, People to see nearby users, and Profile to set up your personal information.

Please Note: This version of the app transmits messages in plain text without encryption. Please avoid sending sensitive information. NTsocial is committed to privacy by design; we collect no personal data, use no servers, and perform no tracking.
