Pryme Audio Accessories has aligned with mission-critical software application Tango Tango to provide seamless, hands-free push-to-talk over cellular (PoC) solutions for first responders, security personnel, as well as for hospital staff and school officers

Together with Pryme’s widely popular Wireless push-to-talk (PTT) Buttons, the companies are delivering integrated, hands-free communication solutions designed to enhance operational efficiency and safety for diverse markets, from public safety agencies and religious organizations to professional sports teams.

According to Ray Brown, business development executive at Tango Tango, Pryme’s Wireless PTT devices have become a key enabler for many of their program users.

“Pryme has been a critical component for Tango Tango customers,” said Brown. “Our users have come to depend on Prymes PTT Buttons to achieve reliable, hands-free operation. Pryme’s advanced technology has opened doors to new customers and expanded our user base across a range of industries.”

Tango Tango’s mobile application extends existing radio capabilities through cellular and Wi-Fi networks to enable cross-platform communication between smartphones, radios, and dispatch centers.

It also allows users to stay connected without carrying bulky two-way radios. Paired with Pryme’s wireless PTT buttons, users can securely and discreetly transmit over the network with the press of a button—without ever touching their phones. The combined solution has seen broad adoption well beyond public safety.

The application/accessory collaboration has proven especially valuable in high-security environments such as athletic events and large ministries, where coordination and discretion are essential. These groups have come to rely on the Tango Tango app along with Pryme accessories to keep security teams connected, the company said.

The partnership first took shape when a professional basketball security director, seeking a discreet communication solution for on-court operations, discovered Pryme PTT Buttons through Tango Tango.

“They loved that they could use Tango Tango on their phones without having to hold them during games,” Brown explained. “The pairing quickly became the preferred choice for security personnel both on and off the court.”

Today, Pryme and Tango Tango’s joint solutions are being used not only by faith-based organizations and national sports teams but also by fire departments, law enforcement agencies, healthcare facilities, and educational institutions. These industries value the ability to bridge traditional land mobile radio systems with broadband connectivity using Tango Tango’s digital interoperability and Pryme’s high-quality, field-tested audio accessories.

“Tango Tango and Pryme share a common mission to strengthen communication capabilities for professionals in critical environments,” said Dave George, president and chief technologist at Pryme. “Our partnership reflects a commitment to safety and the seamless integration of hardware and software across communication platforms.”

As the collaboration continues to evolve, both companies are exploring new integrations to enhance performance across a broader range of mission-critical communication environments.
