The Walkie Talkie feature comes to Teams on iOS and Android: communications are now easier without leaving the app

Microsoft is committed to improving Teams with one more tool. This is the Walkie Talkie function, the same one that we can find, for example, in the Apple Watch and that facilitates communication via audio, in this case between users of the collaborative platform.

"

Microsoft brings the Walkie Talkie function as one more tool within Microsoft Teams, so that we can use the phone or tablet on which Teams is installed as one of those old walkies we used in the 80s and 90s."

A walkie without leaving the application

The Walkie Talkie feature has been under development until now and is available to all Teams users, regardless that they use an iOS or Android-based device.

The Walkie Talkie function can be used both via data connection and connected to a Wi-Fi network A tool oriented on all to people who make frequent use of audio communications and who is even powering phones with a dedicated button.

This is the case of the agreement reached with the company Zebra Technologies to create a device with an exclusive button that facilitates the use of the walkie talkie function .

This function is another rival for applications that allow you to send audios, in the case of WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram... so that those using Teams can establish quick voice communications without ever leaving the app.
