Video Calling Apps For Android

Here is the list of the best video calling apps for Android. If you were looking for a good video calling or video chatting app, have a look at this list.

1. Google Meet

Google Duo

Previously, I added Google Duo as the best video calling app for Android. Now that Google is ready to merge Google Duo with Meet, I have changed this listing to Google Meet. Google Meet aims to be a single platform for both personal use and professional use. Meet is one of the best video calling apps for Android. Google launched it as a dedicated video calling app with a simple interface and straightforward options. It is easy to use and you just need to verify your number for creating an account. Its “Knock Knock” feature makes it notable as it shows a live preview of the caller before you receive the call.

If you call your friend who couldn’t receive your call, you can also leave a video message. So, you can still share the moments you wanted to share in the video calls even if your call was not picked.
