MeshVote — Offline Voting App, No Internet Needed

MeshVote — Offline Voting App, No Internet NeededRun live votes at conferences, assemblies, and large gatherings without internet. MeshVote uses Bluetooth mesh networking for secure, real-time peer-to-peer voting.Members vote on their own phones — iPhone, Android or Mac — and the phones form a Bluetooth mesh, so a ten-person board, retreat or HOA votes as easily as a church assembly, AGM, classroom or convention of thousands. There is no hardware to rent, ship or collect.Pricing

How It Works

An administrator creates a group in the MeshVote app

Attendees scan a QR code to join — no accounts required

The administrator opens a poll

Members cast votes, which propagate via Bluetooth mesh

The administrator closes the poll and results are sealed

Frequently Asked QuestionsDoes MeshVote work without internet access?Yes. Polls and votes travel from phone to phone over Bluetooth, so a group can run every vote with no Wi-Fi, no mobile signal and no server. Each person installs the app before the meeting; after that, nothing needs internet.How many people can vote for free?The Free plan runs groups of up to 10 devices, the admin's included, with unlimited polls. Team (50 members), Community (250) and Rally (1,000) are flat subscriptions.Do we need to rent clickers or voting keypads?No. Everyone votes on the phone already in their pocket. There is no hardware to rent, ship, hand out or return.How does the BLE mesh network work?MeshVote uses Bluetooth Low Energy to create a peer-to-peer mesh network between nearby devices. Votes propagate through a gossip protocol — each device relays messages to its neighbors. No internet connection is required.Can someone vote twice?No. The system enforces one vote per device per poll. This rule is enforced by every device in the mesh.Is our voting data stored in the cloud?By default, every group runs Network Sync — votes propagate over both Bluetooth and encrypted cloud storage in parallel. Events are end-to-end encrypted with your group's invite key, which we never store. Admins can opt out at group creation; those groups run pure BLE.Do members need to create accounts?No. Members simply install the app and scan the QR code to join. No personal information is required.Does this work in a large venue?Yes. MeshVote is designed for assemblies of thousands. Phones throughout the space act as relays, extending coverage automatically.Can votes be changed after a poll closes?No. Every vote is cryptographically signed with a timestamp. Once closed, the tally is sealed and cannot be retroactively altered.Links
