Introducing Enhanced Push to Talk from AT&T

This just came across our desk: for all you iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 users out there, you can now Push-to-Talk (PTT) on AT&T with a new app and service. While Android and Blackberry users have been enjoying the service since this past November, you can now grab the app for you iPhone and get chatting!

More than just some walkie talkie app, the “Enhanced” part of AT&T’s offering means who can see which of your contacts are online, automatically join active talk groups, share calls within your organization, make and receive calls whether you’re on Wi-Fi or 3G/4G/LTE, and send data safely with enterprise-grade encryption.

Enhanced PTT costs $5 per phone line per month, and with it you get all of the features listed above.

Over the coming weeks we’ll be talking more about Enhanced PTT and how it benefit your business, but if you’re on your iPhone and want to try it out right now you can head on over here and download the app.
