My wife and I were eating at Canje in Austin a few years ago, and the restaurant was so loud that we couldn't even talk with each other even though we were sitting at a small table.
I've always wanted to figure out a better way than just using earplugs, and this is the start of that idea.

how does the peer to peer connection actually work across all those noisy environments, like does it need bluetooth or some kind of mesh setup?
How does it actually pair everyone's phones together without any kind of central hub, and is there a cap on how many people can be in the same group chat?
@emelraz3770 currently for close proximity, it's 8. And it's just an audio-mixing limitation.
It doesn't need a central hub because it relies on clever peer to peer networking.

Used it on a flight last weekend and it actually held up, even with three of us tucked into a noisy cabin. The P2P setup feels almost magical for something that needs zero signal.

This uses peer to peer WiFi.
