It’s an app for phones and it works like a walkie talkie, but with everyone on your channel able to hear what you broadcast.

The Cajun Navy used it to dispatch rescuers and recon.

It’s like a scanner that you can talk to and hear.

It would also be a very useful tool for families to keep in touch. You can download it and create your own channel.

A lot of people who have lost power are using it to receive tornado warnings and emergency info from people who are out of state and monitoring the news.

It’s fascinating. Just people who care out there trying to help.

It works on wi-fi and cell data.

Just discovered you can also use Zello on your PC.
