Voice Chat App Voxer Gets New Competition From Zello, A (Non-Spammy) Push-To-Talk Alternative

It looks like popular walkie-talkie app Voxer is about to get some competition in the mobile voice chat space. A new app called Zello is growing like crazy, too - in fact, it's growing faster than Voxer internationally (although it's behind in the U.S.) and it has reached the #8 spot in the free Android social app list. The cross-platform mobile app just reached 1 million uniques per day, is nearing 4 million uniques per month and is adding on 100,000 users daily. But while Zello shares some similarities with Voxer, it's not a Voxer clone by any means. Instead of approaching voice chat from the more?utilitarian standpoint of a mobile push-to-talk type experience as Voxer does, Zello's focus is on social, voice-enabled communities. Voice Twitter, if you will. Oh, and it's doesn't spam you either, the company says.
