Walkie talkies are great fun, aside from the fact that they provide you with a direct line of communication with the person on the other hand, which can be supremely useful in many scenarios. Conventional walkie talkies have range limitations but what if you could bring that same functionality to an application? That’s what Voxer has done and its voice messaging app is now available for the Gear S2.

The app is simple enough to use on the Gear S2, just select a contact you want to chat with and then press a virtual button to speak to them in walkie talkie mode. If you’re on the receiving end you will first get a notification that a message has arrived which you can listen on the watch itself or use Bluetooth headset. Voxer app for the Gear S2 is now available for download absolutely free.
