Two Way : Walkie Talkie Reviews

by Woods The Wood Pecker

I used TwoWay once and immediately got freaked out. My fiancé is deployed over seas and I'm in the us, while we were using TwoWay another person came in and told us he know where we are and said the exact place mi fiancé was. Then he told us to get off.... I don't recommend anyone to get TwoWay.

My husband and I set this up today to try...it worked which is great, but later in the day a stranger called into my walkie talkie. If we could isolate our frequency to a private group I would give this 5 stars

Works as it intended. However, TwoWay need a setting option for sound and alarms. The sounds from other users are too quiet; yet, the alarm’s sound pierces my ears on the same sound level.

So pretty cool, seems to work but it’s intermittent. If my phone is asleep for too long, I don’t get incoming sounds for message alerts or messages. If I’m in TwoWay , or on my phone they come through. And then I put my phone sleep and they come through for about five minutes or so and then they stop coming. Please help!

TwoWay is great. Except that my family have moved about 8 hrs away and we have reset to a frequency that is not being used and we are both set to the same city and it does not work. Any help?

This is working well. It requires all users to have TwoWay “open” in the background. Haven’t been able to figure out how to make it open when called by someone unless it is running already. It also requires users to put a bullseye on the map where your group is located. That is a one time deal and no worries. Everyone in your group has to select a common operating “channel” which is a number you choose. Very simple and just a one time deal. Pretty good app Would hope in the future that it can tell you there is traffic with an alert so you can open TwoWay if you are called.

You guys really need to fix the volume it really needs to be louder I would have giving TwoWay a 5 but it needs to be louder

Great little Walkie-Talkie app. For users with Apple Watch Series 0 they are unable to use the built in Walkie-Talkie. Hope you guys can integrate TwoWay with Apple Watch. Thanks.

We needed something in our house because my husband has become hard of hearing. He's usually in one room and I'm usually in the room that is adjacent to it, and if we want to talk to each other I can hear him but he can't hear me. It was driving me crazy! Short of getting him hearing aids, an idea he was not embracing, we needed to do something easy to allow me to save my vocal chords from yelling all day long. Carrying real walkie-talkies seemed very impractical, but we always have our phones with us. TwoWay is free, so I figured we had nothing to lose to try it. I will agree with everyone who has complained that there are no instructions, because we were getting other people trying to talk to us… NOT acceptable. And even though one might be careful of what one says over this device, I got sick of this one woman who kept trying to talk to me EVERY time I said something. Not to mention that it is no one's business what we say to each other. TwoWay does say that you can talk to only those people to whom you want, and it seemed intuitive that, like a ham radio or any communicating device via radio waves, that both of you have to be on the same "frequency." Considering that TwoWay only has three buttons (well, four buttons if you include the TALK button) it seemed obvious that the icon with the little squares that pulls up a number had to be the way to "change your frequency." This is where it is very annoying that NOTHING is mentioned as to the correct number to choose, to make it private. Must it have all six numbers? Are certain numbers not going to work? Must it be within a certain range of numbers? And on, and on… It wouldn't have killed the developers to give the user a couple of sentences explaining what to do with the three buttons! This is where it lost a star from me. Anyway, it was easy to see that the geographical location should be put to our area, and that was easy to set. You just hold down on the map until your location is set to the center of the crosshairs. It can be just a rough guess, and it will work. As for resetting the number, we just chose an arbitrary six digit number to replace the one it comes with. Ours just happens to also start with a 3, so don't know if that makes any difference but I doubt that it does. Now that we have done that we have no more interferences from anyone else talking when we have TwoWay turned on, and we are very happy with it. The range it will carry between you and the other phone is amazing. The farthest we have used it so far is about 10 miles in the city of Phoenix, and it was loud and clear on both ends. If you have a need for an app to do something like what this does, go ahead and get it, and you will love it. I hope my simple explanations will help some of you who are having trouble with the "no instructions" issue. Great app!

I decided to try it on old phone on WiFi and my new phone so mad up so numbers and it worked trying to get my doughtier to try it

by BOSS_joker

This is a pretty kew app..i was remembering the good ol nextel walkie talkies amd looked for a app and was not disappointed... fun for groups of friends or family easier and more interactive than group text! Would recommend

by Bella_Rose62

Me and my brother can talk to my friends that live an hour away at the same time, and the fact that even when TwoWay isn’t open or you phone is turned off you can still hear what they say. I LOVE IT!!

by Will I Am=William

You guys did a great job!
I would really like it if you could make it when the volume up button is pressed and held it allows u to talk instead of having to touch the screen !

Like if you agree

by Salinthehouse

I love this!!! These people who gave a bad review because someone else got into their conversation are not to bright. It's a walkie talkie app, if you don't know what that is then you might want to look it up. If you want privacy then use your phone to call the other person.

TwoWay is very easy to use. People complaining about not being able to work it. It's simple not rocket science. TwoWay is awesome and works very well.

by Christian Le's I Pad

this works in the background and lockscreen PLUS it can have unlimited number of users exactly what i was looking for

by Dj LyRiX81

It's really easy to use. My wife and friends never have anyone interrupting. We set our own frequency and we all set our app to it. There's tons of numbers to make up your own. Super simple to use. Hope this helps those who don't know how to use it.

by Hkvv

This is great. Especially for festival season.

Just one thing I think would be great is if someone were to use TwoWay and it notified anyone else with TwoWay on the same frequency when their app isn’t in the background. You get it? So if I wasn’t using it but someone wanted to talk to me on my frequency I’d get a notification saying someone’s using TwoWay or something like that... I guess that’s like integrating contacts.

Either way this has helped me out so much. Thanks for this!!

by Hshabekns

I think this I an amazing app that will let you and help you with staying in contact with others. I’ve tested this myself from 3/4 miles away and it works just as fine. For anyone that needs an easy app to talk on with others I highly recommend this. The private pin you can use for private radio communication is my favorite because it adds security when talking. If it was available when my phone is locked but with TwoWay “open,” it would be better. Other than that, overall a very good app.

by Versatilevelocityvolatile

I wish TwoWay had shortcut or if I could add to widgets that would be really cool.

by Martian

Still greAt app but i appreciated the ability to manipulate the sound settings for my personal needs and preference. I don't understand the logic behind an update that downgrades.
