Walkie-Talkie is a fun, simple way to connect with someone who has a compatible Apple Watch. Like using a real walkie-talkie, press a button to talk, and release to listen when you’re ready for them to reply. Walkie-Talkie requires that both participants have connectivity—through a Bluetooth connection to the iPhone, Wi-Fi, or cellular.
Note: Walkie-Talkie is not available in all regions.
Tap your friend’s name.
Touch and hold the Talk button, then speak.
If your friend has made themselves available, Walkie-Talkie opens on their Apple Watch and they’ll hear what you said.
To adjust the volume while you’re talking, turn the Digital Crown.
If you have difficulty keeping your finger pressed on the Talk button, you can use a single tap to talk.
Open the Settings app on your Apple Watch, scroll to the top of the screen, then turn off Walkie-Talkie.
Turning on theater mode also makes you unavailable for Walkie-Talkie.
