Why SharedSpace

Free means free.

Most messengers give you the basics and then charge for everything that makes an app feel personal. SharedSpace doesn't. Everyone gets everything.

What stands out

Details that make it yours

The everyday basics are all there. These are the parts you won't find free in most places.

Themes

Make it look like you

Pick a theme, or build your own down to the last colour. The bottom bar and the rest of the app follow along.

  • Five themes: Purple, Black, Red, Blue and Pink, in light, dark or system mode.
  • A fully custom theme where you choose every colour, plus the gradient background and how strong the glow is.
  • Chat customization: your bubble colour, their bubble colour and the chat background, with a float-in animation you can switch off.
Inside the app

The little things, done properly

Chats, calls and media that feel polished, without a paywall in sight.

Message effects

Make a chat shake, set off fireworks across the whole app, or send an invisible message that only shows once it's opened. Chats can also delete themselves after a time you choose.

Stickers you make

Pick any photo and it's cut out automatically with a thin white outline. Crop it, rotate it, add text, draw on it, add emoji, then send it. Favourites get their own tab.

Calls that feel native

A full-screen incoming call over any app with a slide to answer or decline, a Note button to jot something down mid-call, and custom ringtones you can preview.

Soundboard & games

Play instant sound clips for each other and challenge friends to Tic-Tac-Toe, Rock Paper Scissors, Reaction Battle, Word Chain and Guess the Emoji, right inside the app.

Media that respects your data

Videos never auto-download. You get a blurred preview, tap to download, then watch in a full-screen player in portrait or landscape. Photos sit in a clean frame, with no bubble.

Notifications done right

Each one shows the sender's photo and stacks per chat. They clear themselves once you read, stay quiet for the chat you have open, and you can mute only a chat's call alerts.

Privacy in your hands

Turn off read receipts and last seen, block and report people, or use local mode where everything stays on your device. Export any chat as a text file.

Backups & safe invites

Save an encrypted backup to Google Drive or your device and restore it later. Invite people with one-use links that expire after 48 hours.
