What BlipBlab is
Voice, heard once, then gone
A blip is a short voice message — up to 30 seconds. The person you send it to hears it once, and then it's destroyed. Anything unheard destroys itself after 24 hours. Nothing accumulates, nothing is archived.
Circles for your people
Your people live in circles — small rooms that float in your sky. Hold a circle and talk; everyone in the room hears you once. Membership is invite-only, always.
Nobody reaches you without consent
Strangers can't message you. Someone who wants to blip you sends an ask — you hear who's knocking in their own voice and decide. Declines are silent. Blocking is instant. You control who can find you at all.
No ads, no feeds, no counts
There are no follower counts, no like counts, no listen counts — anywhere. No algorithmic feed, no ads, no keyboard. Closeness, not audience.
Signing up
You create an account with your phone number. When you tap "text me the code" in the app, we send you a one-time verification passcode by SMS. One message per request; message and data rates may apply; it's never marketing. Reply HELP for help or STOP to opt out — though verification codes only arrive when you request one.
Your number is used solely to verify sign-in — it's never shown to other users, never sold, never used for marketing. People find you by your handle. Details in the privacy policy.
Where it stands
BlipBlab is live in invite beta on iOS via TestFlight. Voice messages are encrypted end-to-end at rest, each with its own key — destruction erases the key itself, so a destroyed blip is unrecoverable, by us included. We publish a security.txt and take reports at security@blipblab.com.
