Muze — Creative chat space
Muze is a very different kind of messaging app. Each conversation takes place on a free-form canvas where you can zoom, draw, layer, edit, and collaborate. It’s a space where talking with your friends feels freeing, creative, and animated.

Looks awesome! I thought I was entering a space with lots of competition. You are competing with Apple, Microsoft and Google! One quick question are messages encrypted?
Brilliant! @blub_blub_blub have tried to sign up on iPhone having difficulties receiving SMS code. I live in New Zealand, will this work there? Thanks
@janemanthorpe should work in NZ! if you still can't get on hop into our discord: https://discord.gg/GDxyx4 - can help figure it out from there
i wish all my groupchats had just been living on this app for years. could have had way more shrek gifs in my life
Have been using this for a couple weeks, makes chatting with friends crazy fun. Really makes you realize how much room there is for creativity in even the most basic product areas (like text/image messaging).
Much love @rrhoover for the hunt.
For anyone just finding us now, hello and welcome! We built Muze in order to bring more life and intimacy to chat. It lets you say what you want to say, *how* you want to say it. Instead of boring sequences of message bubbles, you're given a freeform canvas where you can experiment and express anything.
The Muze gang wants to give a special shoutout to the community who supported us throughout our stay on beta. All of the bug reports, feedback, idea jamming, delightful conversational moments, and everything in between have meant the world to us. It's been a crazy time, but we're extremely grateful to be launched and aligned with a group that is looking to bring the best out of what we've built.
If you want to join the conversation, here are a few ways you can support us:
- Download the app here! —> https://www.muze.chat/join/
- Check out our website and feel free to share. https://www.muze.nyc/
- Keep in touch. We recently put together a Discord community for anyone interested in staying in closer contact with the team. Bug reports, feature requests, chat highlights, you name it. Here's the link the join: https://discord.gg/wJ3t7Gq
Thank you all so much. Looking forward to reshaping and refreshing chat together.
@douglas_witte1 Very interesting take on messaging! Been looking for a new messaging app and I would have loved to use this, but the requirements for my next messaging app are that it must be private, secure, open source, and decentralized (no lock-in). I haven't seen any mention of end-to-end encryption of message/canvas contents; is this something that you're doing? Any plans at all regarding open sourcing or decentralization?
@rrhoover @kyel_seo For sure. Sorry about that - forgot to update the expiration for the link I made in my comment above. I made an edit to my comment that swapped out the invalid link with one that works. Here you go: https://discord.gg/wJ3t7Gq
Current messaging is very linear and not creative or expressive. Muze Messenger breaks down those walls and allows us to communicate freely. What I like about the app is that I can pull a message where ever I want on the screen or change the font of my messaging to express how I feel. This app definitely makes the group chat more "real" and not the "oh ... i miss understood what you said because we're texting" vibe.
I was privileged to be invited by a friend and it's one my most favorite messaging apps out there. Its extremely fun to use and seeing my friends creativity has me bawl in laughter sometimes.
I've been loving this, but I'd love to have a feature that lets you find friends that are also on Muze, ideally from your phone contacts or facebook friends, etc.
@jamesontheline If you sync contacts during the onboarding you are shown friends who are on the app. We do need to make it so that you can sync contacts if you skipped this step in the onboarding though :/ Thanks for the feedback!
@willem_simons1 Yeah I remember that happening when I signed up for the beta months ago, but at that point none of my friends were on it yet and now I don't think I have a way to discover friends on it again
There is the kernel of something fascinating in the kind of conversation that can happen on Muze, that can't happen elsewhere
@douglas_witte1 looking forward to the Android. Other favourite creative app recommendations in the meantime? :)
Absolute Unit of an app! Super usable, beautifully designed, and packed with features that allow for unencumbered creative expression. Congrats to the makers on this truly revolutionary product!
This app will eventually go viral. It's so much more pleasurable to use than anything else out there. By a thousand miles. And it's far more practical, not just creative. If you've got a group chat going, if you've got a business and need to communicate with the group, you and they will be able to respond in ways unimaginable before this... This app is a game changer. Big time.
Incredibly innovative take on digital communication, especially since the space has been so stagnant since basically 2007
