Video calls have become our daily bread for many users, especially for those who have a family member abroad. Skype was one of the first to offer this type of service for free among all users of this platform and it must be said that it is one of the best today, both for the quality of the video and the quality of the audio. But as we all know he is not the only one, Hangouts is beginning to overshadow him in this regard and It is becoming an important alternative although it does not offer us the same options as Skype, thanks to the plugins that the Microsoft app supports.

Facebook Messenger has just joined the select group of services that offer group video calls to try to overshadow the greats of the internet. Many were the users who had requested the possibility of being able to make group video calls and the platform, although late, is already offering it to all its users. Like all Facebook services, Group video calls is a free service that allows us to have group video conversations of six people at the same time, that is to say, that the six people appear on the screen of our smartphone at the same time.
But the real limit of this service is not six, but Facebook has raised it to 50, but since we cannot show the 50 people on the screen of our smartphone, only the person who is speaking at that moment will be shown in full screen. Video calls can be customized with different filters in addition to adding stickers from the last application that MSQR bought for make video calls even more lively. As we can see in the promotional video, adding our members during video calls is very simple, so it is very likely that Facebook Messenger calls will soon turn into video calls, especially now that Christmas is coming.
