Voxer is what is known as a ‘walkie-talkie’ app in that it allows you to send an instant voice or multimedia message to a contact, with the push of a button.

If their phone is turned on and the app is running, the message is played through their speakers, or if not, it is received as a recorded message like a voicemail.

Along with this feature, Voxer allows the standard text and photo messaging, VOIP calling, and group messaging. Voxer is free for individuals but a business version is also available with extra features for a fee.
