Turn Your Phone Into A 2 Way Radio
Phone calls are so last century, and sometimes text messaging just won’t do. Wouldn’t it be great if you could combine the two?
It’s time for another Data Doctors Tech Tip.
There’s an app that’ll turn your phone into a walkie talkie, that’s right a 2 way radio. The app is Voxer.
Voxer is more than a walkie talkie, Voxer is a multimedia push-to-talk application. With Voxer you can instantly send voice, text and photos to individuals or groups in real time.
Now, when you’re out running errands, you can use Voxer instead of calling to get a quick voice message delivered instantly. It works so fast, you can have a real 2 way radio conversation.
Just press the Hold & Talk button and your voice is sent in real time! You can listen live or listen to recorded messages later. Need to show the person a picture in the middle of the 2 way conversation? Simply attach it and it’s there nearly instantly.
When your teens are out at the park, you can easily stay in touch with them so they know when its time for dinner.
Use it when you take your summer road trip and you have multiple cars in your caravan. That brings us to one of the best and most practical uses of Voxer... you don't ever have to text and drive. Simply have a 2 way on the freeway.
The Voxer App is available for iPhone and Android, and best of all it’s FREE.
