News & Reviews:   video call

During the pandemic, it's hard to meet our family and friends that live away from us, let alone strangers. With that said, Tinder will now widely roll out a new feature that allows users of the dating app to video call each other. It is called Face to Face and will soon be available in the app.

With how things have changed this year, video calling is probably a trend that won't go away. That's why we're seeing more of such services popping up and developers making great efforts to expand and improve them. Google is doing the same and with Google Duo by adding support for the service to other devices.

The increase in numbers of people working from home has seen video calls becoming a new norm. We're now able to easily communicate with our colleagues using platforms like these, but does it warrant new video call hardware that isn't at the level of corporate video conferencing? Zoom seems to think so.

Back at the end of April, Facebook introduced Messenger Rooms where people are allowed to have a video call up to 50 people. That's pretty cool and all considering that most people have Messenger already so they don't need to register at all, and it seems that WhatsApp users will be able to access into that soon!

Now that video calls have become the norm for many people, more companies have begun to beef up the features of their services. For Google Duo, new features were announced about 2 weeks ago, allowing more people to join calls. Now, Google has announced two more updates for Google Duo.

With the rise in popularity of video conferencing apps, companies have been making efforts to promote and improve their services. Google Duo is one of them and it's just seen some new improvements to it that users will appreciate. In the latest update, Google added four new features to the platform to help people stay connected.
