WaveLink Pro User Guide
Everything you need to master the ultimate offline mesh network walkie-talkie.
1. Getting Started
Creating Your Profile
When you first open WaveLink Pro, you'll be prompted to enter a Display Name and optionally upload a Profile Picture URL. This is the identity that your peers will see on the mesh network. Remember, your identity is stored entirely on your device and is not linked to any cloud server.
Permissions
To enable the offline peer-to-peer network, you must grant Bluetooth and Location (Wi-Fi Direct) permissions. Location access is strictly required by the Android operating system to discover nearby hardware, but your GPS location is only shared if you explicitly turn on the "Radar" feature.
2. Connecting with Peers
Creating a Channel
Tap the "Create Channel" button to generate a secure, encrypted room. A unique QR code will be generated for your channel.
Joining a Channel
To join a friend, tap "Join via QR" and scan the channel creator's screen. Because the channel ID determines the AES-256 encryption key, only people who have successfully joined the channel can decrypt voice and text messages.
Range & Mesh Routing
The app relies on Wi-Fi Direct (approx. 100-200 meters) and Bluetooth Low Energy (approx. 10-30 meters). Ensure you are physically close to your peers. The mesh protocol can bounce messages through nearby devices to reach distant ones.
3. Using the Walkie-Talkie (PTT)
Push-To-Talk (PTT)
Press and hold the massive central microphone button to speak. Your voice is instantly compressed with AMR-WB @ 16kHz and streamed directly to everyone in your channel with zero-server latency.
4. Advanced Features
Radar & Location Sharing
Toggle "Location Sharing" in your Settings to activate Radar. This will broadcast your GPS coordinates to your channel, allowing your peers to see your distance and direction relative to their position. Turn it off anytime.
On-Device AI (YAMNet)
If enabled in Settings, the app uses an embedded YAMNet AI model to scan your background audio. It can detect up to 521 sounds (like "Wind", "Traffic", or "Alarms") and display them on your Heads Up Display (HUD). This processes entirely on your phone's processor; no audio is sent to Google.
5. Troubleshooting
Devices Won't Connect
1. Ensure both devices have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth turned on.
2. Make sure you are physically within 50 meters of each other.
3. Verify that Location permission is granted and Location Services (GPS) are toggled ON in your phone settings (Android requires this for hardware discovery).
