If the group chat does not yet exist, create it by clicking &#8220;Create new.&#8221; Once you&#8217;ve created a group chat, you can add people to it. To add people to a video chat, tap &#8220;Add People&#8221; in the main view, located at the bottom. To quickly jump to the Add People window, you can also swipe up on the main view.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Group_video_chat\"><\/span>Group video chat<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve ever wondered how to make a group video call on Facebook, look no further than Messenger. The app has features that allow you to customize your group chat name, avatar, and background, as well as edit your video chat name and photos. In addition, you can even edit your chat&#8217;s lighting and effects! There are also many other useful features available for group chats, including mini games and challenges.<\/p>\n<p>To make a video call with your group on Facebook Messenger, you must have the latest version of the app installed. Open any group conversation in Messenger and tap on the video icon. Then, all members of the group will receive an alert. You can also turn your video camera on or off or mute your microphone to keep everyone happy. Once you&#8217;ve finished setting up your group video call, you can join the call with your Facebook friends.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"One-on-one_video_calls\"><\/span>One-on-one video calls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to make one-on-one video calls with friends and family, Facebook Messenger can help. It&#8217;s free and easy to use, so why not give it a try? You can make a video call by tapping the &#8220;video&#8221; icon on the top right of your Facebook home page. You&#8217;ll be able to see who you&#8217;re talking to and start chatting with them in no time.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike other video call apps, Facebook Messenger&#8217;s video calling feature works with your personal device. If you&#8217;re using a Bluetooth device, you&#8217;ll need to switch to another device. Look for the Bluetooth icon on the top-left corner of the screen. From there, select your personal device and start talking! If you&#8217;re having trouble seeing your friend&#8217;s face, you may want to take the camera a few steps back.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Group_video_calls_with_up_to_50_people\"><\/span>Group video calls with up to 50 people<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Facebook&#8217;s Messenger Rooms feature will soon allow you to make group video calls with up to fifty people. While this feature is limited to eight people, it will allow you to make group video calls with up to 50 people. This new feature is being rolled out globally on Android and iOS. Once it&#8217;s ready to use, you can open it from your Messenger or Facebook account. In just a few steps, you&#8217;ll be able to connect with as many people as you&#8217;d like.<\/p>\n<p>To start your group video call, go to the Facebook Messenger app and click the Video Call button. You&#8217;ll be taken to a new screen where you&#8217;ll need to send the link to all of the participants in the call. When everyone has received the link, they&#8217;ll automatically be connected to the call. The video call will last for as long as the meeting is open, and it will work with as many people as you want.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Allow_pop-ups_on_Facebook_Messenger\"><\/span>Allow pop-ups on Facebook Messenger<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Facebook Messenger allows you to make video calls. A notification will pop up on your screen when you receive a video call, allowing you to accept or decline the call. If you&#8217;ve already accepted a video call, you&#8217;ll see your friend in the center of your screen. The top right corner of your screen will have buttons to open a chat, switch between cameras, and mute the microphone. If you&#8217;re trying to start a group video call, however, you&#8217;ll need to create a group conversation first.<\/p>\n<p>To begin your call, ensure that your microphone and webcam are turned on. Make sure that your Internet browser&#8217;s pop-up blocker does not prevent your call from succeeding. Also, enable Facebook hardware access and pop-ups in your browser. You&#8217;ll need to enable both of these settings if you&#8217;re using Chrome. After this, you&#8217;re ready to begin making video calls with your friend!<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ADnmMMbSuOA\" height=\"296\" width=\"529\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do I Make a Video Call on Facebook Messenger?
