TALKABOUT T800 App
Motorola Solutions just launched the First TALKABOUT two-way Radios (TALKABOUT T800) with a mobile app, which combines messaging and location sharing capabilities with reliable two-way functionality, ideal when pursuing fun off the cellular grid. Outdoor enthusiasts can share and track their locations and send messages with fellow travellers while off the cellular grid. Users download the TALKABOUT app to their iPhone or Android device then connect their smartphones to the T800 radios over Bluetooth. The app uses the T800 as a modem to send messages and locations over radio frequencies. Users can share current location, send group messages to alert others for a safety concern or potential meet-up spot. Users can set up a designated area and alert others when they are about to leave that area. Maps can be downloaded ahead of time using the TALKABOUT app.
