With many attending classes or working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been an uptick in the use of video calling apps. While Zoom was one of the most downloaded apps this year, it also showed us how important privacy is for such video calling apps. Now, Signal Private Messenger also wants a piece of the piece and has added end-to-end encrypted group video calls to its mobile app.

Now, if you are a religious Signal user, you will start seeing a video call button at the top of your group chat. Just tap on the video call button to start a face-to-face group conversation. All participants of the group will receive a notification when you start a video call. It’s quite self-explanatory.

Now, one of your biggest queries will be – how many users can participate in Signal group video calls? Currently, you can only have up to 5 participants in group calls. This is a major shortcoming but the company plans to increase the count very soon.
