Palo Alto, CA - Wednesday, May 11th, 2016

Ooma, Inc. (NYSE: OOMA) a leading smart business and home communications platform, today announced that its Talkatone app, a consumer mobile app that provides free calling and texting over Wi-Fi or a mobile data connection, has launched universal, out-of-network group messaging for both Android and iOS platforms.

The universal group-messaging feature in the Talkatone app allows consumers to easily create group chats with any other mobile device user across all major U.S. cell phone carriers (AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon), making communications, including picture sharing, seamless with colleagues, friends or family, whether or not they are Talkatone app users.
