Briar

About Briar

Briar is a messaging app designed to synchronize between users through supported network connections, including Bluetooth and local Wi-Fi when contacts are nearby. The official manual explains how to add contacts and use its forums and private messages. To evaluate it, try exchanging a message with a contact while both devices are online, then test a supported nearby method so you know what works before you depend on it. It fits a group willing to agree on the app and its contact setup in advance. Range, available hardware and each device's background behavior all affect the experience. Briar is in maintenance mode, with essential fixes as the priority. Check supported devices and background operation before relying on it.
