It already works, check the releases link!
Not sure what you mean with this? NetPass works in parallel to normal StreetPass, so nothing stops you from still taking your 3DS to places to get passes ^-^
the official streetpass still works just fine, as it is only p2p and thus does not rely on nintendos server at all. The issue of not getting streetpasses moreso is that barely any people take thier 3ds with them anymoreBut no maches nowadays with the official streetpass
Hey, first I want to say that this DOES work on both my consoles. I've only received one streetpass tag on the two from the software so far, but that's better than nothing!
However, I haven't received any streetpasses all morning. I was up at 8:30-8:45 (Central) today, and there has been no notification as of this comment. Is this a bug of some kind?
The central 3DS notifications sadly don't work, however the individual apps should get the green notification dot.
That being said, the way soru updated the server side to make passes more random also means that they are currently somewhat rarer again; the solution to that is to get more people to use NetPass! So, go and spread the word around to everyone x3
Also, glad that the last version fixed your issues c:

This is on universal updater now! https://db.universal-team.net/3ds/netpass
That would be great, but soru isn't too sure yet she likes how the strings are atm. Let soru sleep over the wording of things first ^-^
Awesome, thank you, will merge later!
NetPass: A new way to experience StreetPass
Scan QR code to download!
Releases: https://gitlab.com/Sorunome/3ds-streetpass/-/releases
Source Code: https://gitlab.com/Sorunome/3ds-streetpass
Introducing NetPass: In the current state of the world, the 3DS is, sadly, on decline. That makes getting StreetPass'es harder and harder, due to fewer and fewer people taking their 3DS with them on a walk. This is where NetPass comes in!
Unlike StreetPass, NetPass works over the internet. Upon opening NetPass, you can pick various locations to go to, i.e. the train station, or a town plaza. Upon entering a location, you get passes of others who are in the same location! And, while you are at the location, others who enter it can get passes with you. But beware! You can only switch locations once every 10 hours!
Thanks to:Hello!
Since nowadays legitimate street passes out in the open are rare, we have been thinking about how to nicely streamline fake streetpasses.
Just having finished a tech demo, soru wanted to present it: It is a homebrew application which you run. Upon running, it uploads your streetpasses (currently to sorus own server, streetpass.sorunome.de), matches the streetpasses with those others uploaded and downloads the streetpass data of others, as if you passed them! There is no background functionality or anything currently, you have to open the app every time you want to get streetpasses, and it may still be finicky. But hey, that is what testing is for, right?
Furthermore soru wanted to brainstorm some ideas on how to nicely get streetpasses. So far soru could think of (no idea if any of those will be implemented):
- some phone app so that you do streetpasses phone-to-phone instead and it syncs with the 3ds
- Maybe if you interact with someones message on juxt or something?
- ???
The source code is available on sorus gitlab: https://gitlab.com/Sorunome/3ds-streetpass
Attached to this post is the 3dsx file for anyone who wants to try this out themself!

- NarcolepticK for this repo describing more cecd functionality
- StreetPass 2 for valuable data dumps
- 3Dbrew for its valuable database of information, especially around the cecd service

can we remove the 10 hour countdown? I got 3 streetpasses but have to wait 10 hours for more?
ah, ok, I think you can enter again only you can not change the place but still you can share information on current place.
I personally don't like the way it works now. I prefer being able to get all the passes possible since I got my 3DS two years ago and limiting the connection to others seems pointless imo.
As others enter the same location you are in, they might streetpass with you, giving you more streetpasses as well
Hmm, soru thought about this project to more replicate what streetpass could have been like; while soru did not use a 3ds back in the day, she thought it'd be unrealistic to get a lot of streetpasses all the time without doing much, hence soru introduced the locations.
That beings said, as of writing this post within the last 10 hours there have been 258(!!!) people who entered a location. Given that the 3DS can only hold up to 10 passes per game anyways, soru thinks that a mechanic like this seems justified.
Currently, upon entering, you pass with randomly 1-5 people at that location. Of course, the numbers here can be adjusted to make a nicer experience
Got this installed and used it, got a handfull of streetpasses at the 'Mall'.
I think what might be nice is some kind of population indicator on the locations? It doesn't need to be an exact number or anything, but knowing where I'm most likely to get the most streetpasses could be nice. Maybe have whatever one's been the most busy add (Popular!) on the end of the name. Like 'Train Station (Popular!)'.
I like the random nature of it, simulates random streetpasses well, but it'd be nice to get more of them at a time.

Just because the games hold up to ten doesn't mean we should be restricted to it. For instance, when I lived in Madrid, I would get street passes just in my apartment from people walking past it.
I like this idea too.
