Blip: Offline Chat Nearby

Chat even when there is no internet. Blip finds people near you over Bluetooth and lets you talk to them. No Wi-Fi, no mobile data, no account. ■ Made for moments like · Subways, planes, basements — anywhere without signal · Festivals, concerts, campus — when you want to say hi to someone right there · Travelling without roaming ■ How it works · You only see people within Bluetooth range (about 10-30 m) · Messages go directly between two devices. They never pass through a server · One-to-one chats are end-to-end encrypted ■ Campfires Open a small room for up to 5 people. When the host leaves, the campfire goes out. ■ Footprints People you pass by are remembered. Meet someone often enough and they earn a badge. Location is never recorded. ■ Privacy · We never ask for a phone number or email · We do not collect location · Conversations stay on your device and disappear after 7 days ■ Good to know · Someone nearby needs the app too · Bluetooth cannot guarantee delivery · The 5-person limit is a Bluetooth constraint and cannot be raised by purchase

Fixed missing notifications. On Android 13 and up the app never asked for notification permission, so nothing showed up in your shade — not who was nearby, not who said hello. Allow notifications after updating and you'll see who's around when you pull down.
