iPhone
Grab a code, share it, hold the button. Real radio feel — now with live translation on the channel.
Squawk turns your iPhone into a real walkie-talkie over the internet.
Grab a channel code, share it, hold the big orange button — everyone on the channel hears you live. One speaker holds the floor at a time, exactly like a real radio net.
REAL RADIO FEEL
• Band-passed, gently overdriven voice — sounds like a handheld, not a phone call
• Squelch tails, roger beeps and optional carrier hiss
• Busy tone when the channel is taken; a 30-second cap keeps anyone from hogging the air
• TX LOCK latches the transmitter open for hands-free talking
TALK ACROSS LANGUAGES
• Tell Squawk what language you speak; it travels with your transmissions
• Listeners can force any transmission to be transcribed and translated into the language THEY choose — eight languages available
• TEXT mode shows a live intercept transcript; VOICE mode has an interpreter speak the translation right on the channel, radio voice and all
• Transcription and translation run on-device (translation requires iOS 18)
SIMPLE AND PRIVATE
• No accounts, no contacts access, no tracking — a channel code is all you share
• Voice is relayed live over an encrypted connection and never stored
• Keep listening in the background — transmissions play while you use other apps or lock the screen
Channels are open to anyone who knows the code — like real radio. Choose a code that's hard to guess, or generate one with the dial.
