In 2018, Apple added an incredibly handy new feature to the Apple Watch that didn’t get the attention it deserved. This new communications tool, which was made available to all Apple Watches (even the Series 1), is an always-on Walkie Talkie app that let you immediately start up a voice conversation with any contact that also has an Apple Watch.
Just like the walkie-talkie-equipped phones of the early 2000s, this app is a great way to chat across your home, or across the country, without ever having to worry about waiting for a call to be picked up. Of course, you don’t always want your spouse, friend, or child piping up from your wrist. But, don’t worry, Apple thought of that too.
