This is the universal build of MeshCore 1.29.0. It contains native libraries for every CPU architecture (arm64-v8a, armeabi-v7a, x86, x86_64), so it installs on any Android device. The trade-off is size — it's larger than per-architecture variants. Pick this one if you're unsure which CPU your phone has, or if you plan to share the APK with multiple devices.

App Description

A simple, secure, off-grid, mesh communications app powered by the open source MeshCore project.

To use this app, you must have a supported LoRa radio device, that has been flashed with the MeshCore Companion Firmware.

Once you've installed the app, you will need to:

- Pair with your MeshCore device using Bluetooth.

- Set a custom display name.

- and, Configure your LoRa radio settings.

That's it! You can now advertise yourself on the network using the signal icon, and send messages to other users you have discovered on the same frequency.

When other devices on the network have been discovered, they will show up in your contacts list.

Frequently Asked Questions about MeshCore APK

This is the universal variant — a single APK that contains native libraries for every CPU architecture. It installs on any Android device but is larger than per-architecture variants.

Yes — the APK's signature has been cryptographically verified against the publisher's signing key. The SHA-256 hash is shown in the File Information panel so you can independently confirm the file matches the original release.

Android 21 (API level 35) or newer. Older devices will refuse the install.

Install a free app like 'CPU-Z' or 'Droid Hardware Info' from the Play Store and look at the ABI / Instruction Set row. Most phones made after 2017 are arm64-v8a; if in doubt, download the universal variant.

All variants are functionally identical — same features, same version. They differ only in which CPU architectures the native code is compiled for, and (sometimes) which screen densities the included graphics target. Pick the one that matches your device for the smallest install size, or pick 'Universal' if you're unsure.
