Video chat contacts are automatically added to the Contacts app. Any existing video chat contacts are merged with the Contacts app and any new contacts are automatically added to the contact list in the Contacts app. You are not required to add contacts in order to start video chats. However, adding contacts means that you don't have to type the BlackBerry ID email address or PIN, or search your chat history for the contact every time you want to start a video chat.
