Description
Looking for a Walkie Talkie app that works *offline* without sending data over the Internet, unlike other similar apps on the App Store? Here's one! It works as long as you have both WiFi & Bluetooth on and within range of other devices. All devices connect effortlessly with peer-to-peer technology or via your Local Area Network (LAN). You can even leave it running in the background!
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please read the specifications carefully before your download - This app transmits data directly over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, but Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology has limits in areas like range. It does NOT work like Internet-based Walkie-Talkie apps that can function anywhere with an Internet connection. If you prefer, you may contact us via our support pages to request for a free trial before purchasing by using beta versions.
For maximum performance, this app requires all users having the same iOS version and same app version. It usually maintains a good performance when the device is within 10 meters (33 feet) with no obstructions, such as very thick concrete walls, or interference from other electronics like a microwave. However, these ranges can still be extended via LAN if all users are connected to the same LAN over Wi-Fi access points spread across multiple locations. Alternatively, good line-of-sight in open space or device models with newer Wi-Fi and Bluetooth versions also can increase range.
Feature Set & Specifications:
- Fully Offline & Private - No connection to the Internet is made
- Connect up to 8 devices in a group together
- Connect via existing Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN)
- Connect via Peer-to-Peer (Ad-hoc) Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
- Zero-Configuration connection - Just tap "Allow"
- Remembers allowed connections: No confirmation needed when reconnecting
- 10 meters (33 feet) minimum unobstructed range with peer-to-peer connection
- Extra range available via WLAN (e.g. workplaces with multiple Wi-Fi access points)
- Broadcast Voice Messages with Push-to-Talk*
- Broadcast Text Messages
- Audio input/output picker to select your preferred audio source
- Can continue running in the background or when locked while connected
- No Ads, No Tracking (it functions completely off the grid after all!)
If the above features and specifications are what you're looking for, get the app today!
*Push-to-Talk only available on-screen. Third-party Push-to-Talk hardware is not yet supported.
*As of right now, Push-to-Talk functions via a queue-based system, where messages are queued like voice messages rather than instantaneously broadcasted. The latter will be implemented in future updates.
Do feel free to let me know from within the app or via our support pages if you have any queries!
What’s New
