Fast, polished proximity chat for Among Us — rebuilt with Tauri, Rust, and a cleaner desktop experience.

   

What is Perfect Crewlink?

Perfect Crewlink is a modern desktop fork of the CrewLink / BetterCrewLink lineage. It keeps the familiar Among Us proximity chat flow, but upgrades the app around it: faster startup, stronger overlay behavior, cleaner lobby tools, better mod support, and a Rust-backed Tauri shell instead of the older Electron-style desktop stack.

Highlights

⚡ Lean desktop app Tauri + Rust shell with a Vite renderer for faster launch, lower overhead, and simpler packaging.	🎯 Reliable overlays Game-attached overlay behavior, improved alt-tab handling, and meeting highlights backed by Rust-read game state.	🧩 Mod-friendly AleLudu meeting support, expanded color palette sync, and better handling for modded cosmetics and lobbies.
🔊 Better voice flow Compatible with BetterCrewLink peers, with improved reconnects, stale-stream detection, and persistent mute/deafen state.	🧭 Cleaner lobbies Direct lobby codes, region labels, quick copy, smart filtering, and code persistence when games move in and out of lobby state.	🎥 Stream-ready Overlay modes, lobby privacy options, compact layouts, and backgroundless positions for cleaner captures.
