Hey WhatsApp users

[DougG]

i’ve only done audio calls.

[DougG]

my kids tell me that video calling is also easy on WhatsApp, but I hate video calling in general so I avoid it.

I use it constantly. Mayla barely knows her iMessage app exists. Audio and video too.

Our family also use it constantly, both for video and for sending messages(for non-time-sensitive things).
Rarely for audio only, we're very english and so always dressed appropriately to take a call .

At Christmas we use a TV plug in wide angle thingy and contact(invite) a number of households worldwide.
You get 4 households on a split screen with all/extended family members on & around their sofas... and conversations become chaotic fast .
Up to four individuals or couples & works well.

It's free (on your internet provider), it's private, it works.

Worked out perfectly! We had a nice chat with Larry and his wife (she's charming) and got to meet their two daughters.

Just checking...something strange is going on with the emoji that @shirokuro posted on my last post. I saw that the forum updated automatically earlier today.

Is anyone else seeing funky code instead of an emoji? @axtremus ?

[ShiroKuro]

@wtg so, it's giving me the same problem whether I try to do the emoji from a web browser on a laptop or from my phone.

And it won't let me "remove" it (for lack of a better word). You know, if you do the thumbs up, and then you do it again, usually it disappears, but this time, once that weird thing is there, I can't seem to remove it.

@wtg Yeah, it happened on one of my posts that I looked at last night.

@shirokuro @bernard

I PMed @axtremus and alerted him about what's going on.

@wtg thank you!
