Find peers. Instantly.

Hopper quietly scans for other phones running the app nearby. When it finds one, they introduce themselves automatically — no pairing, no contact sharing, no permissions dialog.

Mesh

Route around anything.

Hopper maps out everyone nearby and finds the best path to your recipient. If someone moves out of range, it reroutes through others automatically — you won't even notice.

End-to-end. Every hop.

Each message is sealed before it leaves your phone. The people passing it along can't open it — only the intended recipient can. Nothing is stored anywhere along the way.
