OoVoo has this week rolled out a new update to both their Android and iOS applications, which has added support for 4-way simultaneous video chat connections.
On Apple devices, the 4-way video chat is only supported on the iPhone 4S, iPad 2, and new iPad. On Android, it’s supported on selected devices with more being added on a daily basis.
Enhanced Video Chat Features
“View 4 friends on 1 screen – now for iPhone 4S, iPad2 and new iPad users. ooVoo lets you video chat with up to 12 Facebook and ooVoo friends, text or make phone calls in exceptional quality for FREE!”
The new update brings a host of enhanced features that significantly improve the user experience. One of the standout features is the ability to text chat during a video call. This allows users to share links, notes, or any other information without interrupting the video conversation. Additionally, the update includes support for push notifications, ensuring that users never miss an important message or call.
Another useful feature is the tracked history for video and text chats. This allows users to easily refer back to previous conversations, making it easier to keep track of important discussions. The ability to start a new chat from the IM tab adds another layer of convenience, streamlining the process of initiating conversations.
Expanding Device Compatibility
While the 4-way video chat is currently limited to specific Apple devices and selected Android devices, ooVoo is continuously working to expand compatibility. This means that more users will soon be able to take advantage of these new features. The company is committed to providing a seamless experience across a wide range of devices, ensuring that everyone can stay connected with their friends and family.
With 12 users enabled, you can’t see everyone at once on your screen but can easily swap the four to suit. This flexibility allows users to manage their video chats more effectively, ensuring that they can focus on the most important conversations at any given time.
