Poll: Will The Release Of Whatsapp Video Calls Challenge Skype, Viber & Others? by Gsmbasics(op): 11:43pm On Nov 29, 2016*

WhatsApp has - eventually - presented a video calling for over a billion users of its mobile app.
While that's good news for a lot of users, how could this affect other messaging services that as well provide video? Sure, each company has their variations but how many users would like to keep several video calling messengers installed permanently?

WhatsApp has indeed been late in adding video calling, with competing messenger services like Skype, Google Duo, Viber and Facebook Messenger all providing the solution already. You might even consider Snapchat becoming a rival to this classification too. The huge question is does the arrival of video calling on WhatsApp indicate you'll now stop making use of these other services?

What's your present preferred app for video calling?

No I wouldn't stop using other app especially IMO because WhatsApp video call wouldn't be able to call at 2G properly
