LOWN
Texts are flat. Drop a neon at the bar you love, beam your friend a full-screen moment, discover what's around — in real space, on a global map.
AR messaging for iOS. Friends-only by design. No feeds, no followers, no anonymous drops. Built in Sydney.
Pin a message at a bar, a corner, a rooftop. Tag the friends who get to find it. They walk past — it lights up in AR.
Send a friend a full-screen takeover. They see it the second they open the app. Reply opens a fresh beam — no inbox, no clutter.
A cyberpunk map of every drop you're in. Local AR magic at home, translocal pins from friends across the planet — Tokyo to Sydney.
Add friends
Trade a 9-character share code. No phone numbers, no contact scraping.
Drop or beam
Tap the dock. Pick a place, pick the friends. Send a message that lives in space, not in a chat.
Find it in AR
Walk past the spot. Pull up your phone. The neon is there, waiting, exactly where it was left.
Burn or keep
Hide what you don't want to see. Burn what you sent. Drops expire on their own.
