BlueWalkie

BlueWalkie — Turn your phone into a real walkie-talkie.

No internet. No SIM. No signal. No accounts. No monthly fees.

BlueWalkie connects your phone directly to other phones nearby over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Just open the app, pick a channel, and talk. That's it.

Perfect for anywhere cell service drops out — or anywhere you'd rather not depend on it:
🥾 Hiking & camping
⛷️ Ski hills
🎪 Festivals & events
🚗 Road-trip convoys
🏭 Warehouses & job sites
🔫 Paintball & airsoft
⛵ Boating
🏘️ Around the neighborhood

━━━ KEY FEATURES ━━━

🎙️ Push-to-talk — Hold to talk, release to listen, just like a real radio
🗣️ Hands-free VOX — Transmits automatically when you start speaking
🔊 Volume-button PTT — Use volume-down as your talk button
🎧 Headset support — Wired or Bluetooth, with media button to transmit
📻 Channels & privacy codes — FRS-style channels 1–22, codes 0–38, to keep groups separate
👥 Group voice chat — Everyone in range on your channel hears you
💬 Text messages — Send quick text when talking out loud isn't an option
📡 Channel scan — Sweep nearby channels to find where people are talking
🆔 Callsign or anonymous — Show a name, or stay unnamed
🔗 Mesh relay — Devices pass messages along to reach farther than a single hop
⌚ Wear OS app — Talk straight from your watch, no phone needed

━━━ PRIVATE BY DESIGN ━━━

Your conversations stay between you and the people around you. Your voice is never recorded, and text messages last only for the session. Nothing is saved to our servers — because there are no servers. No account, no sign-in, ever.

ℹ️ Like any radio, a channel is a shared, open space. Anyone within wireless range on the same channel and code can hear you — so treat it like talking over an open radio.

━━━ PERMISSIONS ━━━

BlueWalkie uses your microphone to transmit voice, and Bluetooth & Wi-Fi/nearby-devices permissions to find and connect to other walkies. On older Android versions, the system requires location permission to scan for nearby devices — BlueWalkie does not collect or use your location.

━━━ FREE TO USE ━━━

BlueWalkie is free, supported by ads.

Download BlueWalkie, grab a friend, and turn any two phones into a pair of radios.
