All about Apple

With each new version that is released, the Apple Watch presents evolutions and new features, ceasing to be just a digital watch with limited features to become an almost essential gadget for those who want to have a connected life.

One of these innovations is the possibility of communicating through voice using the device like a walkie talkie, or the radios of the Nextel Era. With it, it is possible to communicate with another person through voice messages, in a similar way to the device that was successful in the 1980s and 1990s.

The best part of all this is that the feature is native to the Apple Watch, so there is no need to use other apps to perform the function. Find out how to use it on your device below!

The feature can be useful in a variety of situations, from shopping to finding someone in a crowd, since contact is made with just one tap. You can add friends and manage when you want to chat.

Important: To use Walkie Talkie, both you and your friend must have Apple Watch Series 1 or later, with watchOS 5.3 or later. You’ll also need to set up the FaceTime app, and this feature isn’t available in all countries and regions.

Time needed: 5 minutes

How to Add Friends to the Walkie-Talkie App
– Open the Walkie-Talkie app on the Apple Watch;
– View your contact list and tap a name to send an invitation;
– Wait for your friend to accept the invitation. Their contact card will remain gray and appear under “Friends You’ve Invited” until they accept the invitation. Once they accept, their contact card will turn yellow and you can chat instantly.
– To remove a friend, open the Walkie-Talkie app, swipe left on the friend, then tap the delete button. Or you can open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, tap Walkie-Talkie, tap Edit, tap the minus button, then tap Remove.
Accept a Walkie-Talkie Invitation
Tap Always Allow in the notification that appears when someone sends you an invite. If you miss the notification the first time, look for it in Notification Center. Invites also appear in the Walkie-Talkie app.
How to Start a Walkie-Talkie Conversation
– Open the Walkie-Talkie app on your Apple Watch.
– Touch a friend.
– Tap and hold the talk button. Then, say something. If the text “connecting” appears on the screen, wait for the Walkie-Talkie to connect. Once the Walkie-Talkie connects, your friend will be able to hear your voice and talk to you immediately.
If your friend is wearing Apple Watch and has Walkie-Talkie turned on, they'll get alerts when you want to talk.

You can also turn Walkie-Talkie on or off by tapping the Walkie-Talkie button in Control Center.

If you turn on Silent Mode in Control Center, you’ll still be able to hear app sounds and your friend’s voice. If you turn on Theater Mode, you’ll automatically be unavailable for Walkie-Talkie conversations. Do Not Disturb mirrors your iPhone settings so you can manage which Walkie-Talkie alerts appear and when.

If your iPhone isn't nearby, you can use Walkie-Talkie with a cellular or Wi-Fi connection. Learn how to use your Apple Watch when your iPhone isn't nearby.
