HOW TO TURN YOUR SMARTPHONE INTO A WALKIE-TALKIE?

The walkie-talkie is a gadget that everyone loves. Used to coordinate teams in the field, it is also very handy for communicating with friends during a mountain biking or hiking trip. Now, thanks to Push To Talk (PTT) apps, you can turn any smartphone into a real walkie-talkie.

The principle behind a Push-To-Talk app can be summed up in one phrase: Press and talk! As you can see, it works exactly like a walkie-talkie. In short, Push-To-Talk apps allow you to create discussion groups with which you can communicate verbally, instantly, at the touch of a button. Unlike traditional walkie-talkies, Push-To-Talk apps use 3G/4G/WiFi networks, which limits their use to areas with coverage but, on the other hand, gives them unlimited range.
