Maps & Live Data

One map. Sky, sea, rail, road, and every hazard in between.

Most map apps show you a blue dot. Radar's map is a live composite fed by dedicated tracking integrations and an ever-growing global feeds engine — pulling from official agencies, aviation networks, maritime trackers, and meteorological services around the world, then rendering all of it as one continuously updating picture.

Live tracking layers

Purpose-built integrations that poll, cache, and tile real-world positional data, so it's ready the instant you open the map — offline basemaps included.

Every feed above arrives over the format its source publishes natively — CAPGeoJSONGeoRSSKMLRSSTelegram — and Radar normalises all of it into one live, map-anchored feed. New sources are added regularly, so this list keeps growing.

Communication

Chat, call, and share — anywhere

Everything you'd expect from a modern messenger, plus the ability to do it all completely offline over Bluetooth, WiFi-Aware, and local networks.

📡

Find & Contact People Nearby

See who's around you on a live radar display. Tap any person to view their profile and start a private conversation — no phone number swap needed.

💬

Integrated SMS Management

Your existing SMS threads live right alongside your Radar chats, in a single unified inbox. No more switching apps for text messages.

🔐

Secure Messaging

Every direct message is end-to-end encrypted with sealed sender technology — nobody, not even the relay infrastructure, can see who's talking to whom.

Share anything in a conversation — images, video clips, documents, contact cards, or a live pin drop — all transferred peer-to-peer, no cloud upload required.

Discover and connect to Bluetooth speakers around you straight from the app — handy when you're at a venue or campsite and want to share audio without fuss.

Privacy & Security

Private by design — not by promise

Most "private" messengers still need your phone number, still collect metadata, and still run through centralised servers. Radar was designed from the ground up to make that impossible.

🚫
No Phone Number Required Sign up with nothing — just pick a nickname and go.
🚫
No Email Address Required There's no account to create and nothing to verify.
🕶️
Truly Anonymous Zero personal information required at any point.
📵
No Data Collection We don't store, analyse, or sell your data — because we never see it.
🚫
No Advertising Radar will never show you an ad or build a profile about you.
🔐
End-to-End Encryption Messages are encrypted on-device and only readable by the recipient.
🪪
Sealed Sender The relay can't see who sent a message — only that one arrived.
🔗
Peer-to-Peer Messaging Bluetooth, WiFi-Aware, LAN, and internet — no centralised server required.
🕸️
Mesh Network Forwarding Messages hop through nearby devices to reach peers outside direct range.
🧅
TOR / Orbot Integration Route internet traffic through TOR for an additional layer of anonymity.
