HOLD TO TALK

Everything a broadcast crew needs

Built by a production company that has run thousands of live matches — for its own crews first.

🎙️

Channels & push-to-talk

Unlimited channels per workspace: MAIN, DIRECTOR, CAMERAS, AUDIO, GRAPHICS… Hold to talk, double-tap to latch, cough button, call (buzz) a channel or a person.

🔒

Runs with the phone locked

Native iOS and Android apps keep audio alive in the pocket, with Bluetooth headsets and automatic reconnect on Wi-Fi ↔ 5G changes.

🎚️

Commentary into vMix

Commentators go ON AIR from the app: unprocessed Opus up to 320 kbps stereo, delivered to a receiver on the vMix PC as an audio input. Talkback to the director is cut from air automatically.

🔴

vMix tally & Auto Director

Operators see their camera's program/preview state on the phone. Auto Director announces “Camera 2 on air” to the crew channel.

🧑‍✈️

Director console

Mute, mute-all, remove from channel, per-channel volume, who is talking right now, latency badges per peer.

👥

Your workspace, your rules

Create your crew, roles (director / operator / commentator), channel visibility per role, your own tally token and vMix bridges.

📡

Program audio feed

Send the vMix master mix back to the crew so everyone hears the show while they talk.

FAQ

 

Do my operators need accounts?

Your workspace admin creates logins (or shares a code). Operators install the app, sign in once and stay signed in.

What is the latency?

Typically 80–250 ms end-to-end over mobile networks. Commentary into vMix adds ~150–300 ms; use vMix audio delay on the camera inputs for lip-sync.

Does it work in China / behind strict firewalls?

Yes — our TURN relay falls back to TCP/TLS on port 443. We've run live events from Tianjin with it.

Can I use it together with Relaya?

Yes. Relaya (our cloud production & streaming platform) Pro and Team plans include Active Intercom seats, and both share one login.

Where is the server?

EU (Finland) today. Regional nodes (Oceania, Americas) are added when there are customers in the region — latency drops to ~30 ms.

How do I pay / cancel?

Card via Paddle.com (our Merchant of Record), monthly or yearly, cancel anytime in the app. Bank transfer available for yearly plans.
