Whatsapp video call for social distancing in corona pandemic

Since the presence of the coronavirus, we have begun to limit our meeting and gathering with others. One way to communicate is to use an application that can make a video call. Whatsapp video call is one of the solutions in addition to other apps. 

I chose WhatsApp because I no longer need to install applications that can be used as long as Whatsapp. As we know that almost everyone in the whole world has Whatsapp. So Whatsapp may be the first way out for video calls.

How to video call by using Whatsapp

This is the central part and significant in our discussion. How to video call by using Whatsapp? There are two ways to make a video call in Whatsapp, only one person and more than one person.

#1 One person

In this session, we will make a WhatsApp video call for one person only, so it's like one on one video call. It's like if you make a video calls your wife, friend, or maybe a girlfriend or boyfriend who is an indifferent place. How to make a video call for this session?
  1. Open our Whatsapp apps on our android smartphone or iPhone.
  2. Choose one of contact in our Whatsapp contact.
  3. Look at upper right, we can see phone symbol ( ) and video call symbol ( ).
  4. Click on the video call symbol.
This is something we usually do at the moment and we will come to the next step to make video call more that one person. How could I do that?

#2 More than one person

In this session, we will make a WhatsApp video call for more than two-person; it can be three or four or something. This is a handy video call for the family. How to make a video call for this session?
  1. In this step, I assume that we have to make a video call for one person because we just continue video call for one person session.
  2. Look at upper right, and click the video symbol ( ), we will be faced with a people search page. We can search who is our target for the third one audience.
  3. At this stage, the screen of an android smartphone will be divided into 3, us, the second person, and the new person that we entered earlier. The third person will appear dialing information until the status is connected so that they can join to chat.
Now we can make a video call more than one person.

Whatsapp video call limit

Whatsapp has limits to Whatsapp video when we use it for video calls. What's the limit for Whatsapp video calls? Whatsapp said that they just only eight (8) Whatsapp video call.

Is it enough just for eight-person? If we use it for personal use, it's more than enough, I think, but if we use it for the company, it's not enough.

How about Whatsapp video call on PC?

This is such an interesting question, but the answer is still no. Why? Because there is hope from everyone to get video calls by using Whatsapp in their PC. I always think of using one app for everything. If Whatsapp can do it, it's the best solution for us.

Unfortunately, they have not been able to present the video call feature for Whatsapp on PC. Everyone and I wish this feature can be included in Whatsapp for a future update.

The way above is to be able to keep communicating with loved ones even though the corona is still on this earth. Whatsapp has helped us to overcome all that.
