Description

I’ve been using Zello PTT Walkie Talkie for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that lets you turn your phone into a walkie talkie. Pretty solid if you’re into this kind of thing.

Here’s what you can do – there’s push-to-talk voice chat, you can join public channels to chat with a bunch of people, and it’s got some cool features like contact status and voice history. And it works over WiFi or mobile data too, which is handy. Took me a little while to figure some of it out, but once I got the hang of it, it’s been pretty useful.

Look, if you need a simple walkie talkie app for work or just chatting with friends, Zello is worth checking out. It’s not perfect – the ads can be annoying unless you pay – but overall it does the job well. I’d recommend it.

Editor Opinion

So here's my take on Zello PTT Walkie Talkie. I've tested a bunch of these kinds of apps and this one's pretty solid. The push-to-talk voice works well and the public channels are a cool way to chat with a community. The interface is simple to use, though it did take me a little while to figure out some of the features. Honestly, it's not the most feature-packed walkie talkie app out there, but for most people it'll do the job. I'd say it's a good option if you need a reliable PTT app and don't want to mess with anything too complex.

The latest update ruined the app. Every time I talk using the actual phone, Zello shows the microphone icon crossed, and says something else is using the microphone, and I...

Horrible! No Live customer support to speak with. The website and app is not user friendly at all.

It used to be good, but the latest version is "broken": playing messages from history view has bugs: screen scrolls not correctly (the currently playing message is not on screen),...
