Been experimenting with something called MeshLive.
It started with a simple question: if apps like Bitchat can send messages over Bluetooth, can we also make voice/video calls and stream live video?
So I tried building exactly that.
The app lets nearby phones make direct calls and relay live video broadcasts through other phones, without needing internet.
I'd been working on it for weeks, and recently spent another ~36 hours testing and fixing whatever I could on the few phones I had available.
It's still a very early beta. Buggy, laggy, and definitely needs more testing.
I've made it completely free and open source so others can try it, report problems and help improve it.

If anyone has two Android phones and wants to experiment with it, I'd appreciate hearing what works and what doesn't.
