Voice memos that turn into conversations
Roads combines the ease of a voice memo with the back-and-forth of a group chat. Share once, and the conversation grows as friends reply on their own time.
Record a memo
Share a quick update or a long story, whenever you have a few minutes.
Friends reply to the moment
They listen on their own time and answer right where something caught their ear.
It becomes a conversation
Replies branch off and build on each other, when people have time to talk.
Built for real catch-ups
The big news, the half-formed plans, the things you learned this year. Room for all of it, without the scheduling.
Replies land right in context
Reply to the exact moment something catches your ear. Your reply stays pinned there, so friends hear it right where it belongs.
Private channels for your people
Make a space for your friend group, your family, or just the two of you. Only the people you invite can listen and reply.
Every friendship in one place
New memos and replies from all your channels show up on one home screen, ready to play whenever you have a few minutes.

I first started using this app with a friend and it's a lot of fun. We use this app now instead of texting or voicemails since we are both traveling and it makes keeping up with each other a lot easier.
A game changer, the interactive audio comments bring conversations to life. It's been super fun chatting with my friends from all around the world on Roads.
One of the coolest apps I've used in a long time. A great way to communicate with family and friends.
Roads allows you to use your voice to stay connected with the world. The app is designed beautifully and is really intuitive.
I've tried a lot of chat apps and didn't think Roads would be any different. Glad I gave it a chance because it's much better than I expected!
I was not expecting to use this app as much as I have. It really pulls you in once you start using it!
Built with the blind and low-vision community
Roads is voice first, and many of the people who use it every day are blind or visually impaired. Their direct feedback has shaped a long list of updates.
