Applications for video calls on iPhone and iPad
On time
If you have an iPhone or iPad, your choice should be the beauty of FaceTime par. First, a video calling app better integrated into the operating system, because it's owned by Apple; which means that you will receive notifications unless the application is open, its software is specially designed to be compatible with hardware, etc.
Second, Apple has been using all kinds of news in its video calling system. You can make video calls with up to 32 participants, use Memojis in real time, add filters and much more.
However, you cannot make video calls with Android users. FaceTime only allows video calls between two iOS and / or iPadOS devices. That is, it only works with the iPhone and iPad, and Apple intends to keep it that way.
Also, we recently learned that SpaceTime has a small problem not allowing video calls with older versions of the mobile app. In other words, you may have problems starting the video call from a device with iOS 13.4 to a device with iOS 9.3.5 or iOS 9.3.6.
WhatsApp Messenger
The popular Facebook messaging app should be your second choice if you have an iPhone. Although it doesn't have an iPad version, where video calls provide the most complete information for obvious reasons, it does benefit some applications that do not: everyone downloaded WhatsApp.
The image and audio quality of WhatsApp video calls is excellent, and easy to use. Just press the video thumbnail button and the app will send a notification that you are receiving a video call.

No doubt Skype is another excellent application to use not only on your iPhone and iPad, but on any desktop, laptop, smart TV, tablet or Android smartphone. Skype was born in 2003 and rubbed shoulders with the popular MSN Messenger of the day. It was acquired by Microsoft, which has improved its performance and usability.
In addition to offering group video calls of 24 participantsIt also provides opportunities to transfer files and make low-cost calls.
Facebook Messenger
Facebook's "Second" (optional) instant messaging app is also free on Windows and the IPOS App Store, and Android, and is a great way to make video calls.
All Facebook Messenger video calls are free, but you are obviously consuming Internet information. The app lets you use the front camera or the back camera. But unlike other apps on the Facebook Messenger version, you can't use group video calls. You can only do it in its desktop version.
Finally, it's also important to mention that you can only make a video call with the contacts you added as friends on the Facebook social network.
