Get Video Chat

Ken whipped up a neat bot which lets Telegram users quickly create a link to join video calls from a Telegram group.

Telegram group video calls can now be triggered by:

• Adding @getvideochatbot to a Telegram group
• Typing /video
• Users click on the url that the bot returns to the group chat

The team added a few enhancements to the video call interface, including:

• Toggle the mic on/off
• Toggle the camera on/off
• Tap to display/hide the call controls
• Enhanced video and audio stability
• Feedback pop-up when users end a call

We also created a landing page to outline the functionality: https://getvideo.chat/
