HomeWAV is a mobile application designed for social networking between visitors and inmates. Available on iPhone, it allows users to create free accounts and manage their connections with inmates at various facilities. The application offers features such as viewing available funds, adding or transferring funds, and updating payment information. Users only pay for the minutes they use without being tied to any plans or packages, making it a flexible option for communication.

Once logged in, visitors can receive notifications when an inmate is available for phone or video calls, as well as messages, depending on facility permissions. The app also facilitates the scheduling of onsite visits, where permitted, while remote video visitations do not require prior scheduling. A stable Wi-Fi connection and headset are recommended for optimal performance, although availability may vary by facility.
