Rockin' Typed Calls: Real-Time Text Joins the Party! 📞🎉
Accessibility in communication initiates from June's end with the introduction of barrier-free telephony.
Get ready to text like never before, ‘cause starting June 28, real-time messaging during phone calls is officially here! It's called Real-Time Text (RTT), and it's about to revolutionize your conversations. This bad boy works on all four mobile networks, given Android 10 or iOS 11.2 is installed on both devices and the new feature is activated.[1]
But hold up! RTT was primarily designed for individuals with hearing or speech impediments, but hey, it's free for all to use if you fancy a live chat during a call – talk about versatility![2]

Here's the best part: RTT function doesn't consume any data, it's provided through the ongoing voice call. So, you only shell out for call minutes, or nothing extra if you're like most mobiles users, savoring that sweet voice flat rate.[2] However, both participants gotta call via 5G, LTE, or get cozy with Wi-Fi networks (Voice Over Wi-Fi).[2][3]
By the summer of '27, RTT will see some exciting upgrades, including a discreet emergency assistance function. When caught in tricky situations like a threat or a silent disco, you'll have the option to communicate unobtrusively and live via text with emergency services (emergency number 110).[1][2]

Launched in the phone app (quicker than Kim K's new outfit), RTT can also be activated during an ongoing call – talk about multitasking![4]
Hop onto Google for a dashboard of how-to's on Android devices, and over to Apple for all the iPhone knowledge.[1][3]
Stay tuned for the future of RTT; it's going places – literally! 🚀📱[1]
