Naven
Use case
Staying in touch across countries without swapping phone numbers
Change your SIM, your phone and your country, and your Naven account is still exactly where you left it.
Who this is for
People whose friends and family are in different countries, on different networks, changing SIMs.
The problem
Every messenger is keyed to a phone number, and a number changes the moment somebody travels, moves, or gets a local SIM. Half the group is unreachable for a week each time.
How Naven handles it
- Your account is an email address or a Google sign-in, so it survives a SIM change, a new phone, and a new country.
- Voice and video calls run over the internet in the browser — no international rates and no separate calling app.
- Inline translation on any message, so a group does not have to settle on one language.
- A guest session works in one browser with no account at all, for the relative who will not sign up for anything.
What it costs
Nothing. Naven is free, with no advertising, no paid tier and no data sale. There is no card, no trial and no phone number.
