Walkie talkie. Do you use it? (sh.itjust.works)

I’ve tried it with my SO during a visit to IKEA. So when we were apart for a few minutes I was able to give an update where I am or what was interesting so look at. But in public I found it rather awkward others listening to our conversation. And now I can’t think of other use cases. So how, when, where and with whom do you use this function?

I can’t even use walking talkie correctly. The app lags, so it cuts out the first half of the audio. And I mean a good 1-2 sentences before it even starts.

When I try to press the button to respond myself, it lags so bad I can’t even record myself for about 6-8 seconds while I wait for the UI lag to catch up.

I don’t think this is a normal experience, but it’s mine.
