AirChat: Peer-to-Peer Chat

I have this app on an iPhone and iPad. It’s easy to see how useful this might be for communication in a grid down scenario. That being said, please make a desktop version of this software for the Mac. It would be a welcome pairing.

I can only send chats when another user has the app open. I could possibly have a setting wrong, but as it currently stands it’s useless if I can’t message someone without telling them to open the app.

No matter what distance Bluetooth seems to be broken on iOS 16.1- however with WiFi enabled, the app works seamlessly.

I like this app because of functions: (1) immediate connecting two devices whenever communication is started; (2) support both pressing Enter on the keyboard and clicking Send to send messages. Most apps has only the function of clicking send on the screen. (3) iPad and smart phone are not restricted to use the app, and not user is required to register. Etc I hope the developer to add the option to save transcripts because they are important for business record.

Tried AirChat. I can see it’s similar to FireChat but it’s only nearby. Great use for neighborhood, school, nearby areas. ;-)
