It’s time to enhance your PTT service with AT&T Enhanced Push-to-Talk. We’ve combined the best of both worlds. Enjoy the ability to communicate one-to-one or one-to-many just like a radio, while appreciating the convenience of a mobile phone. Track and share your location, establish geo-fences, send and receive highly secure messages including PDFs, pictures, and video, communicate with Land Mobile Radios, and take advantage of features based on 3GPP MCPTT standards, all powered by America’s best network*. New 3GPP MCPTT based features allow authorized users to place emergency calls and alerts, remotely disable and enable AT&T Enhanced Push-to-Talk and more. We also give you the option to choose from two intuitive user interfaces (UIs), basic or land mobile radio (LMR). Our basic UI is designed for all users and features.
