Messaging application, Snapchat, will roll out group video chat soon on iOS and Android. Enter an existing group chat or create a new group with users you wish to chat with. Tap the video icon to start a group video call. Each group member will be notified that they are invited to a call and, when they open the call, their name bubble will show up above the keyboard of the user who initiated the call. Upto 16 users can participate in group video chats simultaneously. Face lenses are available during group video chats.
Meanwhile, group audio chatting can support 32 friends at once.
Friends have the option to join a Group call just with voice too, or toggle between video and voice, if they aren’t camera ready, the blogpost added.
With another new feature “Mentions”, users can tag friends in the Snaps they add to their own Story.
“Group Video Chat” and “Mentions” will be rolling out globally over the next few weeks.
