In this modern era, almost everyone owns a smartphone and smartphones have completely changed the way we use a gadget. When 3G network was launched, from then video calls have become a popular way to communicate with friends and family through mobile devices. Video calling allows both users to see each other while talking, this thing can be very useful for those who live far away from the person they are calling.
If you have an Android phone with front facing camera and are on 3G/4G or Wi-Fi network, then you can easily make video calls for free.
