Hey everyone!
Lately, I’ve been working on a group walkie-talkie feature for Live.τ! (I believe someone asking about this.)
What is the feature?
It’s the ability to exchange voice messages within a group. You can use your headphones (which is probably the most convenient way) or your smartphone like a traditional walkie-talkie. You will also be able to initiate PTT via your watch (this is currently in the works).
How does it work?
You need to have or be in a group. There is no minimum size, it can be just 1 person.
To create a group, you must have a verified email address. You can verify your email and create the group in your profile.
Go to Settings -> Lab -> PTT in group session set to [on].
After that, you can use the walkie-talkie during any workout.
(Note: At the moment, if you are in a group, any workout is broadcast to all the groups you are a part of).
You can start speaking into the walkie-talkie in three ways:
App: Open the panel with the PTT (Push-To-Talk) button on your group card [image: 1774904748888-simulator-screen-recording-iphone-16e-2026-03-30-at-23.01.02.gif]
Headphones: Use the play/pause button. Since we can’t capture a “press and release” action on headphones, the button acts as a toggle. One press gives you 15 seconds to speak. If you want to end the transmission early, just press it again.
Watch: Using a button on your watch, similar to the headphones. This isn’t implemented yet, but it will be available in the next watch update.
Your messages will be broadcast to everyone in your group, plus anyone watching your group via the web.
Where is it available?
It’s available starting from version 1.0.16 (87):
iOS: via TestFlight
Android: as an .apk file
This is an experimental and relatively complex feature, so there might be a few quirks. So and because of this, I’m really looking forward to feedback from anyone who wants to try it out!
