Hi everyone,
I'd like to hear people's recommendations for (Free) video chat
software with clients for an Android phone (preferrably software in
F-Droid) as well as iPhone (so I can get others with iPhones to chat
with me).
Criteria:
* Uses a protocol for which iPhone and Android clients are available
* Free software, or at worst with a permissive license
* Supports video chat
* Easy to use and performs well
I tried GNU Ring and it connected and carried the call, but the audio
was very quiet on my phone, and when I plugged in my earbuds the audio
didn't switch over to them. These are rather cosmetic issues that I'm
sure will be resolved in future versions, and I look forward to using it
in the future, but in the meantime it's not adequate.
I looked at some XMPP Android clients, but it seems that there are none
that support video chat. Am I missing some?
I found Linphone, but haven't tried it out (with another person).
Are Ring and Linphone the only two mobile phone possibilities?
Thanks in advance,
-Jim
