How it works

Three taps and you're in the room.

Mobitub uses your local Wi-Fi to discover everyone else running the app nearby. No accounts, no friend requests — just shared space.

01

Hop on local Wi-Fi

Open Mobitub anywhere with shared Wi-Fi — a coffee shop, lecture hall, conference floor, or hotel lobby. The app handles the rest.

02

Discover the room

See everyone else on the network with their handle, mood, and what they're up for — chat, board games, study group, jam session.

03

Chat, play, collaborate

Send messages, share files, queue up a song, start a quick game, or open a shared doc — together, in real time, in the same physical space.

What's inside

Everything a great room needs.

Mobitub bundles the social tools that work best when everyone's already in the same place. No notifications from across the country — just the people next to you.

Conversation

Room-wide chat

A live feed for everyone on the network. Reply, react, drop a poll, or split into private DMs and small group threads.

Play together

Local multiplayer games

Trivia, drawing prompts, word battles, and quick card games — all hosted on one device, joinable in seconds by everyone in the room.

Files

Drop & share, instantly

Send photos, slides, PDFs, or playlists at full Wi-Fi speed. Files stay on the network — never bounced through a cloud.

Collaboration

Shared boards & docs

Brainstorm, sketch, or draft together on a live whiteboard. Perfect for study groups, sprint rooms, and workshops.

Now

Live moments

See who's around, who just joined, and what's happening this minute. Drop into the energy of the room without scrolling a feed.

Privacy

Stays in the room

Conversations live on the local network — encrypted between devices and gone when the session ends. No accounts. No tracking.

For students & teams

A working room without the lag.

When everyone's already in the library, lab, or office, you shouldn't have to round-trip through a server in another state. Mobitub keeps collaboration local and fast.

  • Live shared whiteboard with sketching and sticky notes
  • Roll-call rooms for study groups and standups
  • Side-by-side document review with cursors and comments
  • One-tap "ask the room" for help, polls, and quick votes
For events & venues

Turn any venue into a social space.

Drop a Mobitub QR code at the door. Within seconds, your guests are connected to a private channel for the night — no app store detour, no asking for the Wi-Fi password twice.

  • Custom rooms branded for your venue or event
  • Live polls, Q&A, and reactions for talks and panels
  • Local song queue — anyone in the room can DJ
  • Auto-archive when the event ends, so nothing lingers
Where Mobitub thrives

Wherever people share Wi-Fi.

Mobitub is built for the spaces where the internet is just plumbing — and the real magic is the people in the room.

Cafés & co-working

See who's working on what, ask for a Wi-Fi tip, swap recommendations, or pair up with a stranger on a side project for the afternoon.

Schools & campuses

Class-only chats, study group rooms, peer-to-peer note swaps, and low-stakes games between lectures — without anyone's distraction tab open.

Offices & teams

A friendlier intranet. Floor chat, lunch polls, project rooms, and shared whiteboards that auto-archive at the end of the day.

Conferences & events

Audience Q&A, live reactions, attendee directories, and breakout rooms — without the chaos of forty group chats.

Apartments & dorms

Building-only message boards, quiet-hours pings, lost-and-found, and pickup games — for the neighbors you actually live next to.

Travel & transit

Airport lounges, long flights with onboard Wi-Fi, hotel lobbies, cruise ships — meet the people sharing your trip without burning cell data.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

Do I need an internet connection?

Nope. Mobitub works on any local Wi-Fi network, even if the network isn't connected to the internet. As long as everyone is on the same network — guest, public, or private — the room comes alive.

Is my data private?

Yes. Messages, files, and game state are exchanged peer-to-peer between devices on the network and encrypted in transit. Nothing is stored in the cloud, and sessions are deleted when the room empties.

Do I need to create an account?

No accounts, no passwords. Pick a handle and you're in. If you want to keep a persistent profile across rooms, you can — it's opt-in and lives only on your device.

Which devices does Mobitub support?

Mobitub runs on iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows. Anything that can join a Wi-Fi network can join a Mobitub room.

Can I use Mobitub at a public Wi-Fi hotspot?

Yes — coffee shops, libraries, hotels, airports, and event Wi-Fi all work great. Some networks isolate clients from each other (called "AP isolation"); when that's on, Mobitub will let you know and suggest a workaround.

How is this different from Slack, Discord, or iMessage?

Those are global. Mobitub is local. It's designed for the people already in the same physical place — the energy of a room, not a feed of friends scattered across the world.

Is Mobitub free?

Mobitub is free for individuals. Venues, schools, and businesses that want branded rooms, custom domains, and analytics can grab a Mobitub for Teams plan.
