📚 Big update for the Meshtastic app: complete docs are now built right in, on both Android and iOS, available in the stores now.
Searchable, organized, and fully available off-grid, so you've got answers even when you're miles from a signal. And they auto-refresh with every app update, so you're never stuck with outdated info.
We've also got firmware 2.7.26 live in beta, packed with tons of new features and fixes. 🚀 Flash it to your nodes and tell us what you think!
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us live at Ubuntu Summit 26.04! We had an amazing time, and Jonathan Bennett knocked it out of the park with his "Hands-on Meshtastic" presentation.
If you couldn't tune in live, or if you just want to watch it again, the official recording is now up on Canonical Ubuntu's YouTube channel. Check out the history of the project, our take on open source culture, and the live demo!

We tested out the new @Elecrow@mastodon.social ThinkNode M3 at Disneyland the other day and it went well! 🏰
It delivered reliable performance, with strong signal and consistent communication across the park. Battery lasted about 17 hours with GPS enabled.

Nothing says "I love you" like 433 MHz of pure connectivity. 💘
Community member TA3MW built this custom "Flower Edition" node as a gift for his girlfriend. We think it’s the perfect gift!
(Note: If she wanted jewelry and you gave her a Heltec V3... that’s between you and her. We’re just here for the packets. 😜 )
