ubject: Walkie-Talkie App Not Working After Updating to iOS 27 Developer Version

Dear Support Team,

I am experiencing an issue with the Walkie-Talkie app after updating my device to the iOS 27 Developer Version. Since the update, the app is not functioning properly, and I am unable to connect or communicate with my contacts using Walkie-Talkie.

I have already tried several troubleshooting steps, including restarting the device, checking my network connection, and verifying that both FaceTime and Walkie-Talkie are enabled. However, the issue still persists.

Could you please help identify the cause of this problem and advise on any available solutions or known issues related to the iOS 27 Developer Version?

Device Model: [IPHONE 17] iOS Version: iOS 27 Developer Version Issue Started: Immediately after updating to iOS 27 Developer Version

Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to your response.

Hello Apple Support,

I’m writing because I’ve had to turn off automatic updates after discovering the Walkie‑Talkie app removal in ios27. My family and I rely on this app every day — myself, my three children, and their grandmother who lives far away. It’s the reason we chose Apple Watches for all of them last Christmas instead of Android or other smartwatches.

The Walkie‑Talkie feature is incredibly useful for quick communication — it saves time compared to texting or calling and has become part of our daily routine. Losing it makes those watches feel like a wasted investment, and it’s disappointing to see such a practical feature disappear.

Please consider bringing the Walkie‑Talkie app back. It’s one of the best and most convenient tools Apple has ever offered for families like ours.
