CraigHew Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Just a heads up, most people who use WhatsApp are aware of the video calling capability. As a family today we've had a great family video chat with 4 people simultaneously. Bit of a laugh establishing the group ground rules but i must say for a free service it was fantastic. Maybe of use going forward over the next few months..... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew O Byrne White - Ireland AO Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Facebook allows more than 4 on the video chat too - powered by Skype I think. Been great for keeping in contact with friends all over the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Zoom are allowing up to 100 participants for free with a time limit of 45 minutes. Pay 11.99 a month and you get up to 100 people for free for 24 hours with no contract. Might be worth it for a couple of months. And only 1 person has to pay. They invite the other 99 people who pay nothing. Ever. I've just help set up a couple of schools with the 11.99 option to try to help keep the kids entertained. The paid for option has more/better features and they seem to be doing something with the quailty as there is little to no buffering/stuttering etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 We have been using the Zoom paid for option at work for a few years now - really good quality. Can't fault the service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
