About MeshCore One
MeshCore One lets you send messages over the MeshCore radio network: long range, low power, and completely off the grid. No cell service, no Wi-Fi, no accounts, and no internet required. Just your iPhone, iPad, or Mac and a small MeshCore radio. Whether you're hiking a back-country trail, working an event, out on the water, or keeping your group connected when the power's out, MeshCore One keeps everyone connected.

What’s new
Version 1.5.1 · Updated September 24, 2026
The macOS crash fix was done by enabling the option to allow multiple windows of MC1. Please note that this is not supported and I do not recommend opening multiple windows of MC1 at this time. I'm planning on adding full support for multi-windows (like popped-out chats) in the future, but that won't come for a while. So for now, please refrain from opening multiple windows of MC1 on iPadOS/macOS :) ## What's Changed - Added Korean translation (thanks cammeresi) ## Bug Fixes - macOS would crash if any search field was focused - Chat was able to scroll horizontally when in landscape on an iPhone
