About video chats

Watch the video

See your friends, colleagues, or family members in high-resolution, real-time video as you chat with them directly from one BlackBerry® PlayBook™tablet to another. You can easily share your surroundings by switching between the front-facing and rear-facing cameras, or turn off video altogether for a voice-only chat or one-way video chat.

To start a video chat, both BlackBerry PlayBook tablets must be connected to Wi-Fi®. The first time that you start a video chat, you must enter the BlackBerry® ID email address for the person that you want to chat with.

Whether or not the request is answered, all incoming and outgoing chats are recorded in the chat history for both tablets.

Starting Audio and Video Chats

The first time you start the Video Chat application on your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet, you must enter a BlackBerry® ID email address for the person that you want to talk to.

The next time, you can either select a contact from the contacts list, or enter a new email address.
