@bentossell Hey Ben, so the idea behind Punch was to make it the fastest possible messaging experience. It came about after my mom was in car accident with a teenager who was texting while driving. So, we are experimenting with a feature that allows you to walkie-talkie without unlocking your iPhone.
Beyond that, we have some cool features. It's the first walkie-talkie app that plays audio through even if the app is not running in the background. It also has a Drive Mode, so your text message notifications are read out loud to you. Our emojis also make sounds... ;)
I think walkie-talkies are an interesting space because they provide unique use cases that traditional messengers aren't tackling.
@jshchnz Yes. Although, I don't think anybody has taken it this far. We use the lock screen music player as the interface. Photos and videos load up as if they were album cover art.
