Features & Usefulness:
TiKL – Touch To Talk (PTT) is simply Awesome! It allows traditional push to talk technology between any cellular network without dedicated hardware all via the app and the Internet. Dubbed touch to talk, it literally works how it sounds, once your contacts are selected and have the app installed (or easily invite others to download the app) you push or hold the on-screen button and speak to your contact(s).
Unlike other walkie talkie apps that recorded audio and emailed it, this app’s communication is near instant if both parties are on 3G or 4G (does not work over Wi-Fi), with maybe 1-3 seconds delay if not. Engage in touch to talk conversations with one or many contacts simultaneously. Plus it detects simultaneous talking between parties so you can balance out the conversation.
What’s cool is that fact that you can chirp your friend, the app opens for them to continue in a conversation with you. This app has many great uses among people for quicker conversations than calling or texting or even companies who already implore PTT communication.
