GTA 6 phone and apps: confirmed, reported, unknown
Rockstar has not published a list of GTA 6 phone apps. Previews of “An Extended Look” in August 2026 reported Snapmatic, an Instagram-style social app; Waink, an app for scanning cars; and Ryde Me, a ride-share app for fast travel. App names from the 2025 domain leak remain unconfirmed, and Peekhole has only been seen on a poster.

What has Rockstar officially said about the phone and social media?
Very little. Rockstar’s own pages do not name any apps. Its character profiles describe Real Dimez’s fame through viral videos and social media, and Cal Hampton’s profile asks “What if everything on the internet was true?”. Rockstar’s music page promises in-game radio and podcasts.
Which apps did the previews show?
Coverage of An Extended Look and the press previews from 27 August 2026 named three apps. Kotaku described Snapmatic as the Instagram-style feed and Waink as an app for scanning cars, and Vice reported that Ryde Me lets you travel quickly. These names come from outlets, not from a Rockstar list, so treat them as reported until the game is out.
Social media and influencers in GTA 6
The only influencer characters Rockstar has named are Real Dimez, the duo Bae-Luxe and Roxy, signed to Only Raw Records. Their profile sums them up as “Viral videos. Viral hooks.” More on them is on GTA 6 characters.
What about the app names from the 2025 leak?
In September 2025, Notebookcheck reported domains such as what-up.app, rydeme.app and buckme.app, reportedly registered by Take-Two. Only Ryde Me has since appeared in preview coverage. The rest are still unconfirmed. We compare the leak with Peekhole on GTA 6 and OnlyFans.
Is Peekhole an app on the phone?
Unknown. Peekhole has only been seen as a brand on a poster at the Jack of Hearts club. Everything we know is on Peekhole in GTA 6.
