Let’s Start the Video Call Procedure

If you are trying to make a video call using Messenger for Android, then all you need to do is to install the Yahoo Messenger app and the latest Yahoo messenger Video and Voice plugin to take benefit of this feature. Video call is even available in the beta mode for Yahoo messenger and the plugin is available to download from the Play Store.

Before using the video chat feature on Yahoo Messenger, you install Yahoo Messenger from the Play Store. One can download this app free of cost and includes Facebook friends, photos, free international SMS, and video sharing and chat with Live Friends of Windows. Even the user can sign in on their PC and Android device at the same time and only get messages to the device on which someone is active. The Messenger app is compatible with Android 2.0.1 and later and previous versions of OS.

2.      Voice and Video Plugin Installation
