In GTA 6, the phone is no longer a menu that pops up on screen. It's a physical handset Jason and Lucia pull straight from their pockets, and its apps drive core gameplay. BuckMe protects your money from being lost when you die or get arrested, WAINK shows a car's security and resale value before you steal it, and ignoring your partner's texts can strain your relationship.

Rockstar hasn't released a full list of apps, so we've sorted every known one into confirmed, reported or rumored, based on developer reveals, previews and leaks. We'll keep this guide updated as new details emerge.

WAINK

WAINK vehicle app icon in GTA 6

WAINK is GTA 6's car-theft app: it tells you which vehicles fences want and how hard each one will be to steal. Edge saw it first-hand, making it one of the best-documented apps in the game.

For each wanted model, the app lists its security features and whether it can be tracked. Better-protected cars are tougher to take. Higher-end models broadcast their location to the police, so you have to shake off pursuers on the way to the drop-off. Most fences run a signal blocker at their location, which cuts the tracker once you arrive.

The car's condition matters too. Part of your payout depends on how much damage the vehicle takes before delivery, so a clean getaway pays better than a demolition derby.

You can also scan parked cars before you touch them. TGG's preview says WAINK shows a car's security, the tools needed to break in, its tracker tier, registration cost and resale value, and whether the tools you carry can start it. Roundups of IGN's preview add locks and alarms to that list.

Still unknown: the full interface, how close you need to be to scan a car, and whether the app can be upgraded.

Peekhole

Peekhole is a fictional brand that appears in An Extended Look at 17:31, on a poster for the Jack of Hearts strip club. Fans read its name and logo as an OnlyFans parody, but Rockstar hasn't said what it is.

The poster's QR code works, but it only opens Rockstar's official GTA 6 site. Nothing so far shows Peekhole as a phone app or an in-game website. Be wary of crypto tokens using the name: Rockstar has no connection to them.

Scooter Bros

Scooter Bros GTA 6 app icon

Scooter Bros brings your own car to you for a small fee. Rob Nelson named it in his Famitsu interview, and Edge described it in action.

How it works:

  1. Open Scooter Bros on your phone.

  2. Pay the delivery fee.

  3. A driver arrives with your car within seconds.

  4. The driver leaves on a scooter they brought along.

It matters more than it sounds, because your weapons are stored in your car's trunk. Calling in your vehicle is effectively how you get your arsenal back.

It is not an instant escape button, though. Delivery takes long enough that you can't rely on it mid-robbery. Edge notes you will still want to park a getaway car nearby before a job, or gamble on carjacking a passing vehicle. That car might have a tracker, an armed driver or an almost empty tank, since every vehicle in GTA 6 has a fuel gauge and engine-health readout.

Leaving your car behind also has a price. Previews report that a car abandoned during a police chase may be guarded or impounded, which makes getting it back more expensive.

Still unknown: the exact fee, where deliveries can reach, and whether there is a cooldown between calls.

Snapmatic

Snapmatic GTA 6 app icon

Snapmatic, GTA's long-running Instagram parody, returns as a feed you can browse but apparently not post to. That comes from IGN's hands-on preview.

You can scroll general content, follow accounts and read other people's posts. What you reportedly can't do is upload your own photos publicly. The story reason is simple: Jason and Lucia are fugitives, and leaving a digital trail would be a bad idea.

Photos still have a use. Nelson told Famitsu that the two protagonists can send pictures privately to each other. Treat that as a separate messaging feature, not part of Snapmatic itself.

Still unknown: whether you can like, comment, save posts, upload video or send direct messages inside Snapmatic.

Ryde Me

RydeMe GTA 6 app icon

Ryde Me is GTA 6's rideshare app and doubles as fast travel. IGN's preview describes booking a ride to skip the drive across Leonida.

Rides can be shared. Another passenger may join the trip, and you can end up in conversation with them on the way, which fits Rockstar's push for small random encounters.

The name first surfaced in 2025, when the domain rydeme.app appeared in a batch of web addresses linked to the game. At the time it only suggested an Uber or Lyft parody; IGN's preview is what tied it to actual gameplay. You will see it written as both "Ryde Me" and "RydeMe".

Still unknown: the final spelling, fares, wait times, whether you can skip the drive (reports conflict), which destinations are available, and whether you can book a ride while wanted.

Fitness app

Fitness App GTA 6 icon

GTA 6 has a fitness app that tracks how rested Jason and Lucia are, though Rockstar hasn't given it a name. Nelson confirmed the app to Famitsu.

In a separate interview with TGG, reported by GamesRadar+, Nelson explained that a health app shows whether each character is well rested. Rest affects how quickly certain attributes regenerate, so skipping sleep has a real cost. The same interview covered weight gain and keeping muscle, which suggests body condition is tracked too.

Still unknown: the app's official name and exactly which stats it displays. Until Rockstar names it, "Fitness app" is a placeholder, not a title.

BuckMe

BuckMe app icon in GTA 6

BuckMe is GTA 6's banking app, and it is one of the best-supported apps on the phone. Nelson confirmed a banking app to Famitsu, and Rockstar's own An Extended Look shows the BuckMe logo on the HUD next to your banked balance, with on-hand cash shown below it.

The bank solves a real problem. Famitsu reports that cash you carry can be lost if you die or get arrested, so depositing it keeps your money safe. Previews say banked money is safe and managed through the BuckMe app, and you deposit cash at ATMs around Leonida. TGG's preview went further, saying you can only bank at an ATM and not from your phone, but no other outlet has confirmed that.

An older fan theory claimed BuckMe would parody Patreon or OnlyFans, based only on the leaked domain name. Previews and the HUD point to a Cash App-style bank instead. The name first surfaced as buckme.app in the 2025 domain leak.

Still unknown: whether you can deposit from the phone, and how withdrawals, transfers and payments work inside the app.

Video app

GTA 6 includes an unnamed video app for watching content on your phone, which Nelson confirmed to Famitsu.

Livestreaming is part of the world as well. Nelson described random encounters where you come across someone broadcasting live, with their stream shown to you. That makes livestreams something you watch and stumble into, not necessarily something you create.

Be careful with lists that count a video app, a short-form social app and a livestream app as three separate confirmed apps. So far, the evidence only supports one video app plus livestream content in the world.

Still unknown: the app's name, whether you can stream yourself, and whether there are TikTok-style creation tools.

On-demand

You can listen to radio and podcasts on foot as well as in a car. Rockstar announced in October 2026 that on-demand podcasts are in the game, playing through headphones or earbuds connected to the phone.

Some app lists call this an app named "On Demand" that also covers shows and creator-safe music. That exact name and feature bundle haven't been confirmed by a primary source yet, so treat "On Demand" as a working label.

Still unknown: the app's official name, whether it carries video shows, and how the music library is organized.

WhatUp

GTA 6: WhatUp GTA app icon

Calls and texts are how Jason and Lucia stay in touch, and how you bring your partner to you. IGN's preview reports that a call or text can summon the other protagonist to your location.

Messages also affect the relationship. Ignoring a text from your partner can hurt your bond, so the phone is part of the story systems, not just a menu.

The messaging app is likely called WhatUp, a WhatsApp parody. The name first surfaced as the domain what-up.app in September 2025, and TGG's preview later listed WhatUp among the apps on the phone. The preview didn't show what it does, so its role as the messaging app is still an educated guess.

Still unknown: what WhatUp actually does, and how much the bond with your partner changes through texting.

Rumored apps

These four names appear on fan-compiled app lists, but none has gameplay evidence behind it yet. Don't expect all of them at launch.

Lifeinvader

Lifeinvader is GTA's long-running Facebook parody, and it played a role in GTA V. Lists assume it returns as a GTA 6 phone app, but no preview has shown it.

Bleeter

Bleeter, the series' Twitter/X parody, is listed for the same reason as Lifeinvader: it has been in past games. There is no GTA 6 confirmation.

Fruit Pay

Fruit Pay would be an Apple Pay parody, tied to the Fruit phone brand from earlier GTA games. It is unconfirmed, and it is unclear how it would differ from the banking app.

Bunko Jack's app

Beebom mentions an app advertised for Bunko Jack's, possibly a store or loyalty app. Nothing about what it does has been verified.
