Best Top 8 Video Calling Apps for Andriod

Staying connected has never been so easy, thanks to the modern-day smartphone, keeping us in touch with our friends even when they are out of reach. With advancements in the field of communications, smartphones have also evolved in how we communicate with other people.

 Video chatting has become one of the biggest features of the mobile industry. With the introduction of FaceTime on iPhone by Apple, video chatting has become a hotspot for developers and investors alike. Even before the introduction of FaceTime, the futuristic feature existed on both iOS and Android but it isn't something that could be used on a daily basis by the users. Then, once the market heats up, many developers realized the importance of this feature and started coming up with new apps supporting it..
 And though, our very own Android comes with built-in voice and video chat courtesy of Google Talk, it sometimes isn't enough for users who want something more from their face-to-face communication. So, to fill in that need, there are many apps in the Google Play Store that you can download and install for free, and in this article we’ll be listing the best of those.

Yahoo

One of the oldest IMs around, and with most people already having a Yahoo! id, Yahoo! Messenger is the ideal app to start off with. While it does support front facing camera,





you may find that it does not allow you to do so on some devices. In such cases you can easily use the rear camera to make a video call (even if it may mean that you will have to stand in front of a mirror to make a call). Since the app does not natively support video chat, you are required to install the video plug-in from the Android Market to make video calls.

 This app is still in beta, so we can expect better video calling support (without you having to install an additional plug-in), in future versions. In addition to making video calls, you can chat with your buddies on Yahoo!, Windows Live, and Facebook, share photos and videos, or even send free international SMS.
