Build & Code Your Own Wireless Communicator!
Chatter is a DIY encrypted wireless communicator that comes in a pair. It is a free, private, security-first texting device that teaches about electronics and coding.
How does it work?
Assemble your Chatters Using the Simple and Fun Instructions
Insert Batteries
Text for Free and Play Games
Code your Custom Apps
DIY Walkie-Talkie with Peculiar Superpowers
Chatter uses long-range, low-power communication (LoRa), which encodes information similar to the way dolphins and bats communicate!
Comes in a Pair but Keeps all of Your Secrets
Ready to become James to your Bond? Use your own private network to scramble text into a secret code that only other Chatter devices will see. Sending texts for free has never been cooler!
Pairing is Caring
Create a whole network of friends to share your secrets with. Create avatars, customize chat features, play games, or send personalized texts, because texting yourself is not as fun as you think.
