Steps to make group video call on Telegram
Making group video calls on Telegram is slightly different from what we have seen on WhatsApp or other instant messaging apps. On Telegram, users will first need to make a group voice call and then they can turn into a group video call. It sounds a little confusing. But it is very simple to do. Here’s how.
Make a group on Telegram (ignore if you already have a group created will all the members you want in it)
To do this, tap on the ‘Pen’ icon at the bottom right and choose the New Group option. Add all the members you want and tap the Right arrow icon at the bottom right. Here enter the name of the group and done.
Now, head to the group existing and the one you just created
Once the group voice call is established, tap on the invite members option and select the members from the group.
Tap on the group name from the top and then tap on vertical three dots at the top right corner
Here, select the option Start Voice Chat and select the participants you want to add in the group voice chat.
Once you’ve added all the members in the group voice call, tap on the camera icon at the bottom left corner to convert it into a group video call.
