Call someone on video
It’s free to call people on video.
Make sure you've got a webcam and check:
- it's plugged into your computer
- you've installed the software that came with it
- it's switched on.
In your Contact list, find the person you want to talk to.
Click on them.
In the main window, click the green Video call button.
Smile, wave, say hello!
Useful things you can do on a video call:
- Resize the screen – click and drag the corner of the video screen to make it bigger or smaller.
- Move it around – click and drag the video of yourself around your screen.
- IM at the same time – click the Show messages link at the top of the video to instant message while you're on the call.
