Is this possible? My parents have Iphones and I have an S7. Of course, their phones use Facetime and Android has their built in video calling app.

Is it possible to video call between these two phones? Is there a separate app needed?

Thanks

They can get the Hangouts app on their phones or all of you can download Skype or something similar.

Duo. But it should be integrated with Allo to make it the all in one app.

Yes. Download and install Blackberry Messenger on both phones. It allows secure cross platform video calling.

You can access it through Allo. It's still 2 apps but I don't have to manually switch now.
