Nelos is a simple way for groups to stay connected when there’s no mobile coverage. Create a team, let others join with a QR code, then use group chat, direct messages, location sharing, waypoints, help alerts, tracking and offline maps over LoRa. No SIM, account or internet connection required. Built for families, hiking, travel and other places where cellular service can’t be relied on. Compatible MeshCore hardware required.
Hi Product Hunt! I’m the solo developer behind Nelos.
I built it because most LoRa mesh tools still expect everyone in a group to understand radio settings, channels, keys, and configuration. I wanted something my family and friends could simply use: create a team, scan a QR code, and stay connected.
Nelos combines group and direct messaging, location sharing, waypoints, help alerts, tracking, and offline maps - without requiring a SIM, account, or internet connection.
I’ve been using it myself in real-world trips, including hiking and a multi-day motorcycle journey, so many of the design decisions came from actual use rather than lab testing.
I’d love to hear feedback, especially from people interested in outdoor communication, travel, or LoRa.
