How to Use NeoWave

Open a Wave, invite someone, send files, and stay completely private — in under a minute.

// Getting Started

01

Open a Wave

Go to the app, enter your name, choose how many people can join, and optionally set a password. Hit Open Wave — your private session is created instantly. No account, no email, no waiting.

💡 Free tier supports up to 2 participants. Need more? Unlock Pro.
02

Share the Invite Link

Copy your Wave link and send it to whoever you want — via WhatsApp, SMS, email, or any other channel. The link is the only key. Anyone with it (and the password, if you set one) can join directly.

🔒 The link only works while your Wave is open. It dies with the session.
03

Chat & Send Files

Messages and files travel directly device-to-device via WebRTC — no server in the middle. You'll see live typing indicators as the other person types. Use the 📎 button to attach files.

📁 Free: up to 10MB per file. Pro: up to 100MB per file.
04

Close the Wave

When everyone leaves, the Wave closes automatically. No history is saved anywhere — not on your device, not on a server, not anywhere. The conversation is gone for good. That's by design.

// File Transfer Limits

📁 Why is there a file size limit?

Free Waves support files up to 10MB — enough for images, documents, and small APKs. For large files, upgrade to Pro once with a license key.

// Common Questions

Can anyone see my messages?

No. Messages travel directly between devices using WebRTC DTLS encryption. There is no server that relays or stores your messages — not even NeoWave can see them.

What happens if I close the browser?

Your Wave closes and all messages are gone. Nothing is saved to any server or device. The invite link also stops working immediately.

Do I need to create an account?

Never. Just enter a name, open a Wave, and share the link. NeoWave has no accounts, no emails, no passwords required (unless you set one for your Wave).

What is the 🔒 lock on participant options?

The lock icon on the 5, 10, and ∞ participant options means those tiers are Pro-only. Free Waves support a maximum of 2 people. Upgrade with a one-time license key to unlock all limits.

Does Pro require a monthly subscription?

No. It's a one-time payment. You get a license key from Gumroad, activate it in the app, and your Pro features are unlocked in that browser permanently — no recurring charges.

Can I use NeoWave on mobile?

Yes. NeoWave works on any device with a WebRTC-capable browser — Android, iOS, Windows, Mac. No app install needed.
