This update takes video to the next level. Group video calls now have up to 1000 viewers, video messages record in higher quality and can be expanded, regular videos may be watched at 0.5 or 2x speed. We've also added screen sharing with sound to all video calls, including 1-on-1 calls.
Group Video Calls 2.0
Video Messages 2.0
Video messages are a quick way to check in or share your surroundings without adding another video to your gallery. They now have higher resolution and you can tap on a video message to expand it and take in all those extra pixels.
Note: To record a video message, tap the microphone icon in the message bar to switch from voice message recording to video. Press and hold to record, then tap the camera icon to switch back.
Video Playback Speed
To power through lecture videos and replay kung fu moves in slow motion, the media player now supports 0.5x, 1.5x and 2x playback speeds. Our Android developer is a fan of hummingbirds, so his app also supports 0.2x speed.
Note: To change your video playback speed, tap ⋮ on Android or ⋯ on iOS when watching a video in fullscreen.
Timestamp Links
Since 2019, putting a timestamp like 0:30 in the captions or replies to videos and YouTube links lets users jump to that exact second – and you can now press and hold on a timestamp in a message to copy the link and share the moment in another chat.
Screen Sharing With Sound
Screen sharing has been added to 1-on-1 calls as well, and now includes the sound from your device when broadcasting in any video call. So make sure you quit Super Mario before its your turn to present — or don't, and use the game for sound effects.
