How to make video calls with Facebook Messenger is one of the main questions of those who use the messaging system of the American company Facebook in the last period. Everything started from the Facebook announcement about the implementation of the function of video calls in Facebook Messenger, the update that brought this functionality was launched only recently for the owners of iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.
In what follows, I will explain how to make video calls with Facebook Messenger on the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, the procedure itself being very simple, but with small impediments if you do not know in advance what you need to consider.
How do I make video calls with Facebook Messenger?
Before starting, you must know that Facebook Messenger must have access to the microphone of your iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, an alert message being displayed when you try to initiate a video call. Apart from this, the friend with whom you are trying to initiate a video call with Facebook Messenger must have an active Internet connection and the application at least open in the background for the connection to be initiated.
If those conditions above are met, then to initiate a video call through Facebook Messenger you will have to open the application, access the open conversation with a friend and press the button on the top right that represents a camera. After pressing that button, the video call interface with Facebook Messenger will open, with options to turn off the microphone, to make the call with or without speak and to turn off or on the camera.
Regarding the receiving interface for calls initiated through Facebook Messenger, you have the option to accept the call with the front camera active, to reject the call on the spot, to reject the call by sending a message and to reject the call by setting a reminder.
After you have accepted the call, you will see your friend's image on the screen, at the base of which options are available for: turning off the microphone, closing the call or deactivating the camera. In the upper right, a button will be available to change the camera used for the video call, so you can choose what your friends see.
After completing a Facebook Messenger video call, you will see a menu like the one above that will ask you to rate the quality of that call, of course only if you want to. The procedure for making video calls with Facebook Messenger is similar to those available for other types of Video calls, so regardless of the situation you should be able to handle it without problems.
