Cabin Talk 1.2

Cabin Talk keeps travel companions connected on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Chat and share photos directly between nearby Apple devices over local or peer-to-peer Wi-Fi, without cellular service or a Cabin Talk account.

When internet access is available, text and photos can also use an end-to-end encrypted relay in Apple CloudKit. An online group member can bridge messages between nearby offline companions and remote family members while Cabin Talk stays open. The developer does not hold the group key needed to read your messages.

KEEP TRIP DETAILS TOGETHER
The shared Trip Board holds gates, seat assignments, hotel details, meeting points, and itinerary notes. Everyone in the conversation can update it. Changes save on your device first and sync through nearby chat or iCloud when a connection is available.

INVITE YOUR GROUP
Private groups are the default. Share the creator QR invitation or complete invitation text with trusted companions. You can also choose a public nearby group that other Cabin Talk users on the local network can discover and join after confirmation. Public groups are not private.

CHAT, SHARE, AND PLAY
Photos are resized and stripped of original location and camera metadata before sending. Use on-device controls to report, block, react to, edit, or delete content. Enjoy nearby games including Tic-Tac-Toe, Checkers, and Word Battle with your group.

OPTIONAL ICLOUD BACKUP
Choose when to back up, review, restore, or delete a private iCloud backup of retained conversations, photos, trip details, group access, safety choices, read status, and preferences. Retention limits apply. Pending sends, drafts, and device identity keys are not transferred. Cabin Talk never asks for your Apple ID password. Local and nearby features work with backup off.

HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT
Report a problem, send feedback, or request a feature from Help & Feedback. Diagnostics are optional and off by default. Review the exact report and any selected image before choosing whether to send it. Crash and performance summaries stay on your device unless you choose to include them in a report.

OPTIONAL USAGE COUNTS
Choose whether to share app opens, sessions, app and OS versions, and selected action counts with Brent Command Center. Activity sharing starts off, and returning-use measurement requires a separate opt-in. Change either choice in Settings. Messages, photos, group invitations, Trip Board text and account details are excluded. No advertising tracking or session replay.

Keep Cabin Talk open and active for nearby connections, internet catch-up, and bridging. Reopen it after backgrounding or force-quitting to reconnect. Device distance, permissions, network conditions, and airline Wi-Fi restrictions can affect delivery. Cabin Talk is not an emergency or safety-critical service.
