TalkRadius
Voice chat with people nearby
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
TalkRadius is the simplest way to talk to the people around you.
Open the app, tap GO LIVE, and you'll appear on a live map alongside everyone else within range.
Tap any pin to start a real-time voice call. No contacts, no phone numbers, no usernames, just
proximity.
KEY FEATURES
• Live proximity map — see who's nearby in real time
• One-tap voice calls — peer-to-peer, no dialing
• End-to-end encrypted audio — our servers never hear your conversation
• Zero account setup — open and go
• Block & mute — full control over who can reach you
• Background audio — your call keeps going when you lock the phone
PRIVACY FIRST
Audio is end-to-end encrypted (DTLS-SRTP) and routed peer-to-peer between phones. Your location is
only used to match you with nearby people; it is never stored. Each session uses a fresh
ephemeral ID so you can't be tracked across sessions.
USE CASES
• Coordinating with friends at festivals, beaches, or stadiums
• Talking to other drivers on long trips
• Meeting people in your neighborhood
• Quick voice chat when typing would slow you down
TalkRadius is free, ad-free, and account-free. Read our privacy policy at talkradius.com/privacy.
Note: Real-time voice with strangers is unmoderated. Use the block feature to control your
experience. Rated 17+.
Ratings & Reviews

Both call screens and peer popups now reliably show topic chips.
