Everything a messenger should do. None of the noise.
A modern voice + messaging app, designed from scratch around a verified contact graph.
HD voice calls
One-to-one and group calls in studio-quality audio. Free between connected contacts. Calls go through Relay's own routing — no PSTN, no caller-ID spoofing, no operator middleman.
Text messaging
One-to-one and group chats with read receipts, typing indicators, replies, edits and reactions. Messages sync instantly across all your devices.
Group chats & calls
Bring trusted contacts together. Every group member has to opt in — no one ever gets added to a chat they didn't agree to join.
File and photo sharing
Send files, photos, voice notes and videos to any of your contacts. Encrypted in transit and at rest, stored only as long as the recipients need.
Verified identities
Every account is identity-verified at signup. The green tick next to a contact's name means a real human, accountable to a real identity, sits behind that account.
Escrowed introductions
The signature anti-spam mechanic: new contacts attach a refundable deposit to their first message. Accept and they get it back; decline and half goes to you.
Native Windows app
A first-class Windows desktop application — not a webview wrapper. Fast, low memory, plays nicely with the system tray and notifications.
Android & iPhone
Native mobile apps with push notifications, background calling and battery-aware sync. The full Relay experience in your pocket.
End-to-end encryption
Your private messages are end-to-end encrypted on the device with the Signal Protocol — the Relay servers never see them in clear text. Calls and shared files are encrypted in transit and at rest, with end-to-end encrypted calls on the roadmap.
No ads, ever
We sell the service. We don't sell your data. There are no ads on Mia Relay and there never will be.
Report & block
Anyone who gets through and shouldn't have can be reported in a tap. Repeat offenders lose verification, lose their deposits, and lose access to the network.
Multi-device sync
One account, every device. Pick up a chat on the Windows app exactly where you left it on your phone — instantly, encrypted end-to-end.
Rings on the lock screen
Calls wake your phone the same way a normal call does — even when the app is closed or the phone's locked. Native CallKit on iPhone, full-screen ringer on Android. No "open the app to receive a call" tax.
Bluetooth headset, Call History
Mia Relay calls route through Bluetooth headsets the same way phone calls do, and they appear in the system Call History on both platforms. It works like a phone, because it is a phone.
Polite interruption
If a regular phone call comes in mid-Relay-call, both sides pause cleanly. If a Relay call arrives mid-phone-call, you see it as an incoming call — not a notification you have to chase.
All on a network you can trust.
None of these features matter if your inbox is full of spam. Mia Relay starts with the trust model first.
