Hi lava52,
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Seems you need Apple Watch Series 1 or later with watchOS 5.3 or later to use walkie-talkie..
(If your iPhone isn't nearby, you can use Walkie-Talkie with a cellular or Wi-Fi connection.)
If you don't see the Walkie-Talkie app
- FaceTime is required for Walkie-Talkie to work, so if you've deleted it, re-download FaceTime on your iPhone. Open the App Store on your iPhone, search for FaceTime, then tap the download button
. - Make sure that FaceTime is turned on. Open the Settings app, tap FaceTime, then turn on FaceTime.
- Open the FaceTime app. To make sure FaceTime is set up correctly, try making a call.
- Restart your Apple Watch.
- Restart your iPhone.
If you have FaceTime on your iPhone and don't see the Walkie-Talkie app on your watch, you might have deleted it.
Open the App Store on your Apple Watch and re-download it.
Apple support have a couple of articles online that may help you use the walkie-talkie app
