The irresistible tandem of Barbie Forteza and David Licauco, collectively known as BarDa, is once again setting hearts alight and sweeping fans off their feet as they serve as the newest faces in social app buz’s latest TVC!

While not a newcomer in the messaging landscape, buz is here to make a difference in the way people connect. A voice-powered app dedicated to building authentic relationships, buz recognizes the power of one’s natural sound – and how voice can not only deepen conversations, but also serve as a source of comfort for those we hold most dear.

With their undeniable chemistry creating waves of support and excitement in roles in Maria Clara at Ibarra, That Kind of Love, and Pulang Araw, we see the alluring tandem once more in a short and sweet TVC illustrating how relationships can continue to be nurtured – even from afar.

Portraying Barbie on her way home, the material provides a glimpse of how David continues to provide a warm presence through buz, in the form of lightheartedly serenading her. Such a scenario is all too common in everyday relationships, where we find comfort in the voice of those we treasure most. 

And this is exactly what buz aims to do for users – to build bridges across distances, and to provide a virtual space where relationships and connections can be fostered and heightened.

With buz, turn your texts into more meaningful conversations with its Push-to-Talk (PTT) feature, allowing users to quickly send voice notes that play instantaneously for the receiver. buz is also home to a number of fun features such as Voicemojis, voice filters, and virtual gifts, enabling all to have more memorable exchanges and transform the ways we connect.

Flexibility is another core value of buz, allowing users to multitask in between apps and even transcribing with its Voice to Text feature to enrich their daily app experience.

All such options within the app are ultimately a part of buz’s efforts to not only add a unique, personalized flavor to every conversation, but also embody the app’s core value of providing instantaneous meaningful communication with loved ones – all powered by everyone’s voice.

Live out BarDa’s buz experience for yourself and don’t forget to catch their TVC! Now the #1 social app from combined Apple App Store and Google Play Store downloads, buz is also completely free to easily allow anyone to fuel and deepen their connections instantaneously with voice.
