Last updated: 20 October 2026 · Pome for iOS and Android is made by Nsonia LLC.
The short version: Pome has no servers, no accounts, no ads, and no analytics. We never see your messages, your name, or your face — there is no server for them to reach. Everything below follows from that.
What stays on your device
Your name and avatar (chosen or generated in the app)
Your message history, rooms, and sticker tray
App settings, including the language filter and block list
Uninstalling the app deletes all of it. What you already sent stays on the phones that received it; there is no other copy anywhere.
What travels between phones
What you post. Messages, stickers, reactions, game moves, and your name and avatar travel by local radio (Bluetooth and local Wi-Fi) directly to phones in range, and phones running Pome relay them to reach the rest of the room. They never pass through a server — ours or anyone's.
Who can see it. Anything you post in the lobby or an open room is visible to the people around you running Pome, the same as speaking up in a room. Direct messages are delivered to the person you send them to. Phones that pass them along can't read them and keep no copy.
Presence. Nearby copies of Pome can tell your device is present — that's what makes the lobby work.
What we don't do
No accounts, and no way to make one
No analytics or crash-reporting SDKs
No advertising, advertising identifiers, or ad networks
No location collection — Pome doesn't know where you are
No message collection — we couldn't read your chats if we wanted to; they never reach us
About the permissions
Bluetooth and Local Network are how phones find and talk to each other. That's the whole app.
Camera is used only when you scan a room-invite QR code or make an avatar from a photo. Photos stay on your device.
Internet (Android). The permission is declared by a framework the app is built on. Pome sends nothing to any server — there isn't one.
Location (older Android versions). Before Android 12, the system requires the Location permission for an app to scan for Bluetooth devices. Pome uses it only for that scan and never reads your position.
Notifications tell you about messages and games when the app is in the background. They're generated on your device.
This website
nsonia.com is an ordinary web server: when you open this page it briefly sees your IP address in order to answer, like any website. No analytics run here.
