Waiting for support, PTT on airpods .. Thank you

NEED AN UPDATE !

The app is awesome and I used to use it, now am trying to use it again but it crashes and doesnt work properly

Meh

This app is better at what it does then any other app like it but it has a lot of bugs. And without any kind of embellishment at all I will say that every update that has "bug fixes" doesnt fix any bugs that anyone has a problem with. The big ones that of been around for a while have yet to be fixed. Not to mention every time they do a bug fix it causes roughly 3 to 5 more bugs. As of today the new bug is that it is kicking me in all of the other users out of channels and deleting people off of other peoples friends list. iPhone users cannot read the descriptions for channels which almost always house the channel rules. If you do end up getting this app just know that you will meet a lot of really cool people but you might not get to talk to them for long because the app wont let you.

Not bad

Love the app just wish you would make it possible for iPhone users to use external buttons on our iPhone (I.E the volume buttons) to key down. Do that and Ill give it 5 stars!

Continues to get better

Zello has always done a good job at ptt communications. As it has grown the app has improved and now uses much less power in standby mode. I really like the group alert feature where you can send an alert to all users on a channel. I only wish there was a way to make the iOS app have Voice activation like the desk top that way I could feed a two way channel off a stream to a zello channel using my old iPhone 4

Great app!

We use this for different channels. A++++

Apple Watch

Apple watch button doesnt work right instead of just a press and release it stays pressed. Also make audio go through watch. Whats the point of a watch app if u still gotta pull your phone out

Shame

Zello used to be a well designed and simple program, the developers tried to make it have needless features. Now the app looks crowded and ugly.

Not working

Please fix the issue

Terrible glitches

Cant even create an account.. the same thing is happening to all of my friends.

A must have app!

This app is awesome! Its like having one of those old push to talk Nextel phones, with the added benefit of not having to have one of those crappy old Nextel phones with all those "please wait" messages it would give you when you tried, and like usual failed, to get in touch with someone else with one of them.

Excellent Walkie Talkie

Excellent walkie talkie app! Easy to use, and a great back up way to the contact others in an emergency. Like other users have said its like the old Nextel walkie talkie but better!

Cant create account

According to Zellow, all of the usernames are taken. Literally all of names.. It wouldnt let me create account :(

Cant create an account

Update needs some work. Im unable to create an account. Keeps telling me username is taken.

Pretty shoddy, wouldnt rely on for professional use

Use this for work on a 6th gen iPod touch. Disconnects all the time even after 3.12 update. Also transmissions are garbled half the time and indecipherable. Can be responding to a call while holding button down and all of a sudden app stops transmitting your call like you let go of button. Can also get a call, try to respond, and then have Zello completely disconnect. Bluetooth headset and push to talk button (Coda Click) seem to disconnect randomly as well. All in all this app is a good idea but poorly executed. Maybe its better on a device with a cellular data connection? Id assume that only fixes the network connection issues though. UPDATE: Ive had to switch over to using this app on my personal cell phone now with a data connection to get any sort of reliability from this app. At this point Im 100% certain it should not be used in professional/commercial environments. Communication in my line of work is too important to base off some shoddy app instead of purpose built radios. Maybe this app is great to call your kids for dinner, but for my use its 1 star all the way.

Add contact does NOT work

On my apple iphone when I try to add a contact from my contacts the app just closes.

Need to be fixed

Mic is not working in iphone 6s plus, tried to delete and reinstall, but still the other party cant hear me, and have tried it in different iphone 6s still the same issue

Sound

I just got the new iPhone 7 and the sound is so drowned out. I cant hear at all this needs fixed soon.

Best Walkie Talkie App!!!

Honestly I dont EVER write reviews even I really like the app, but Im very pleased with this app! At first i thought I would only go 45 yards and stop, however I talked to my friend that lived a mile and a half away!!! Keep up the good work and people that dont have app yet that are looking for a walkie talkie app get this!

Channel controls and live streaming are impressive

Tried Zello earlier this year, but I got a version where the sound would drop in quality within half a minute of using the app, so I ended up removing it. This version has fixed that problem, though, and Im really loving this app. I like that you can control how the Record button works, either as a toggle or press-and-hold like a traditional walkie talkie. Channel/group controls are wonderfully robust, and the app is almost completely accessible with VoiceOver. Ive recommended this to my friends and this just may become my go-to voice app with them.
