How to use Walkie Talkie on your Apple Watch — Apple Support By Apple Support

Voiceover: From your backyard to the kitchen, or a beach hut to a ski lodge, Walkie-Talkie lets you chat back and forth using your Apple Watch, no matter the distance. Here's how to get started. First, make sure your Apple Watch is running watchOS 5. Now sure how to update? Check out the link in the description below. To start using Walkie-Talkie, press the Digital Crown to go to the Home screen. Then open the Walkie-Talkie app.

You'll see a list of suggested contacts that you can use Walkie-Talkie with. Tap on a contact name to send them an invite. Once they accept, you'll see their card turn yellow and you'll receive a notification. To add more people to your list, tap the yellow back button in the upper-left corner of your watch. Scroll down and tap the plus sign and then tap another suggested contact to send them an invite.

Once your friend has accepted, you're ready to chat. Tap Open Walkie-Talkie to start. Then, touch and hold the Talk button to start chatting back and forth. "Whoa. Check out the snow forecast!" And just release the Talk button when you're done talking.

If your friend is unavailable, you'll see this screen. Oh, well. Let's try another friend. Tap OK. Then tap the yellow back button and select another contact.

Now, touch and hold the Talk button again. "Got an extra lift ticket. You in?" Then release the Talk button when you're done. When your friend responds, you'll hear their voice immediately and without a notification. Shota: Yeah.

Let's go! Voiceover: Just like that. If you don't want to be reached on Walkie-Talkie, let your contacts know you're not available. Tap the yellow back button, scroll up, and turn off your availability. Turning Do Not Disturb on or using Theater Mode will also turn off your availability. Copy that!
