Nearo: Offline Nearby Chat

No signal. No account. Still connected. Nearo lets nearby iPhone users discover each other, connect, and exchange text messages without relying on an internet connection. Open Nearo, see who's nearby, send a request, and start a temporary conversation the moment they accept. CHAT NEARBY See other Nearo users nearby and message them directly — no internet required. Nearo works over your local network, device to device. NO ACCOUNT No sign-up, no phone number, no email. Choose a name and an avatar, and you're ready. DIRECT CONNECTION Messages travel straight between the two devices, encrypted along the way — never through a server, because there isn't one. TEMPORARY BY DESIGN Nearo is built around temporary sessions, not permanent chat history. When you end a conversation, it's deleted from your device — and Nearo tells the other device to delete its copy too, whenever that's possible. Reconnecting later starts a brand-new conversation. SIMPLE ON PURPOSE No groups, no attachments, no read receipts, no noise. Just a nearby conversation when you want one.
