Storage

What you need in an emergency is in one place: in your circle’s storage or your own.

  • Emergency plan, meeting points, phone list, authorisations
  • Stored on your phones, readable without internet
  • Encrypted and spread across many locations in Europe
Remember

Your passwords

anynear remembers your logins and fills them in when you sign in to apps and websites. No more remembering.

  • Website, name and password – that’s all
  • Unlock with fingerprint, face or phone PIN
  • Encrypted and spread across many locations that stand in for each other

Getting started

Start a conversation.

01

Set up the app

Choose your name. You don’t need a radio for this.

02

Connect with people

Share a contact link or invite people to your circle.

03

Send messages

Message directly or in your circle. Whatever works for you.

Safe & distributed

More ways to connect. Less dependence on one place.

Your messages and files are encrypted and spread across many locations in Europe that stand in for each other – not on one single server. Only you hold the keys.
