Motorola Talkabout Reviews

Beware

Truthful too on

United States

Bought 4 and was unable to even download a map let alone use it to navigate or communicate. Could not do this at home let alone in the field. Concept is very cool but does not appear to perform and will be returning the devices.

Believe the 1-star reviews

Maps haven’t worked for a long time. I understand a small downtime for updates but at this point, Motorola is lying and cheating their customers.

Bluetooth Audio Accessory - Major Flaws

Digitaladdict.org on

United States

I bought this with the intent to connect to my iPhone and use my Bluetooth headset for communication. For reference it’s a Sena 50C motorcycle helmet headset. It has speakers and a microphone that work fine in every other app, however it will not work in this app. Because of that, I cannot use VOX and will have to push a button and talk into the walkie-talkie mic. However, that’s not even the worst part! The worst part is that the app stops sending audio to your Bluetooth device if the app is not main and open. That means no Apple or other external maps. Nearly as tragic is that the app overtakes all other audio applications so you cannot use music and voice at the same time. Probably returning the T802s I bought on Amazon because of this.

Why do I need an account to use offline maps?

There’s nothing that tells you that you should create an account to get a full feature set and then after you’re done with setup you realize you can’t use offline maps… Jank.

Everything about this app is garbage!

Bricemb on

United States

Everything about the application, and the T800 Series Motorola radio are garbage, including the customer service. The application is and has been nothing but half baked builds, never has it been useable without a ton of bugs that Motorola never cared to fix. All about profit and don’t give a *** about quality.

Download map functionality completely inoperable

pab5482 on

United States

It is impossible to download a map in the app for use offline, so that you can send your GPS coordinates to the other user (as advertised). If it allows you to do it at all, it’s such a tiny map area that it’s useless. Support had me uninstall and reinstall the app. It worked once and then went straight back to the way it was before. This does NOT deliver on its promise, or justify the price of the radios.

Maps are useless

RobPryce on

United States

I spent the past 8 months talking with the customer service team trying to get the offline maps to work. They just “resolved my case” because they know the problem is not something they can address. Let me save you time - Stop trying to download offline maps because it’s a waste of time. Don’t get these radios based on the ability to locate your partner.

Will not pair with iPhone

DumSta on

United States

T803 failed to pair with iPhone

Map not working

Holblin on

United States

So, the difference between this walkie talkie and the others is the Bluetooth to have access to the maps and text. The maps simply don’t work, online offline, nothing seems to work… That was the feature I wanted, making this walkie talkie not working for my needs.

No maps

s-m-t on

United States

Just bought 4 of these for an upcoming trip. Huge disappointment that the map download does not work. Just get a spinning gear. That is the main value add of this type of app and the T800 series. Probably better to get fully waterproof radios than waste your time trying to get this app to work.
