[nfb-talk] NFB and WhatsApp?

[Mike Freeman]

Also, there are HeyTell and Zello. Incidentally, Jim, if you want to be on
the HeyTell NFB of Washington group I've created for several years, just let
me know and I'll send you an invite.

Hi Jim:
>From what I understand, Messaging is the purpose of the app. One can create
a group and message everyone, or individual friends. I guess groups would be
good for Chapters or other events.
I also like an app called Roger. It basically does the same thing, but has
sort of a walkie talkie feature.
The messages on either app are real time, but verbal so no need for texting.
