Set your radius and start chatting with nearby people.
How proxchat works
Radius
The slider controls how far you can see. You only connect with people who are within both your radius and theirs. Slide it wider at a large event, or keep it tight for a single room.
Rooms
The global room connects everyone. Tap + room to create a named room for an event or place. Rooms expire automatically. Share the link or QR code to invite people.
Direct messages
Tap a name in the buddy list to DM them. Messages are encrypted between your devices. The server cannot read them. Keys are generated fresh each session.
Whisper
Tap the whisper button before sending. The message appears for 30 seconds, then disappears for everyone. It is never stored.
Bump
Tap bump or shake your phone to send a pulse to everyone nearby. A way to say hello without saying anything.
Commands
Type / to see available commands. Hosts can kick, ban, mute, and post announcements. Anyone can report.
Privacy
No account. No phone number. Your exact location is never shared — only an approximate distance, rounded to a 3-mile grid. Recent room messages are stored on the server. DMs, whispers, and your GPS coordinates are not.
