October 13th, 2011
 

Great news, we just launched Video Calling for all the iPhone and PC users out there! You can get your hands on latest updates here:

The Nimbuzz video calling feature works over 3G/4G and WiFi, so no matter where you are you can always connect with your friends. All you need to do is make sure that both you and your Nimbuzz buddies have installed the latest version ;) .

Even more exciting, we introduced video chat, which allows you to message/text with video, but minus the audio. This feature is awesome because it allows you to see each other on networks that restrict access to VoIP calling services ;) .

Next on our list, video calls for Symbian and Android mobile phones :D !  Stay tuned!

We hope you will enjoy video calling and video chatting and we are waiting for your feedback.
