Online walkie talkie: questions people ask
Is there a walkie talkie website I can use without downloading anything?
Yes. Open ketska.com/app in Chrome, Firefox or Safari on a phone or a computer, allow the microphone and press the big button. Nothing to download, no account and no sign-up: pick a nickname and an avatar and you are on air within seconds.
How much does the app cost?
This walkie talkie comes at a great price: free. No subscription, no paid features and no advertising inside the conversation, in the browser and in the iOS and Android apps alike.
Can I make a private channel for my family and friends?
Yes. A private channel is your own voice room: create it, share the link or QR code, and only people who have it can join. It is the simplest group voice chat for a family, a road trip, a hike or a work crew, and it works at any distance.
What are the public channels?
Public channels are open voice rooms anyone can join: channels for a city like Prague or Brno, for a highway, an event or a hobby. They show up on the map, so a public channel is the fastest way to meet the people who are around you right now.
Who can hear me?
People inside the range you choose, from a few hundred metres to a whole region, and everyone in a channel you have joined. Private channels are invite-only, so nobody outside hears a word. You can also turn public mode off and be heard only by your channels and contacts.
Do I need a phone number or an account?
No. Ketska is a voice chat without registration: it never asks for a phone number or an e-mail. Your identity is a nickname and an avatar, and you can change both any time.
Does the online walkie talkie work on a PC or laptop?
Yes. The web version runs in any modern browser on Windows, macOS, Linux or a Chromebook, with the microphone you already have. It is the same live network as the phone apps, so you can talk from your desk to friends on their phones.
Is it a real walkie talkie or a simulator?
It is real, live voice, not a toy or a simulator. Push to talk and people hear you the same second, over the internet instead of a radio band, so there is no range limit, no licence and no antenna. It is closest to a virtual CB radio in your pocket.
Is Ketska an alternative to Zello, Voxer, Two Way or Discord?
Yes, and the difference is who you end up talking to. Zello and Discord connect you to contacts, channels or servers you were invited to; Voxer sends voice messages; Two Way pairs you with random strangers. Ketska connects you live to the people physically around you, with no account and no invitation, and adds private channels for your own people. It is the closest thing to a real walkie talkie with unlimited range.
Can I use it as a CB radio for truckers?
Yes. Set a wide range on the highway and Ketska becomes a digital CB: drivers near you show up on the map and you talk with one press, with no licence and no antenna. There is a dedicated truckers page with the details.
Does it work hands-free while driving?
Yes. VOX mode starts transmitting when you speak, so you never touch the phone, and the built-in AI noise filter removes engine and road noise before your voice goes out. Bluetooth headsets are supported as well.
