Many of us use skype or Facetime to video call friends/family abroad. Equally many use Facebook to use messenger. I do both, mind you, that's all I use Facebook for as I'm not into that. However, Messenger have now introduced video links. The interesting thing is, if you are using the IOS system, you are able to use it to contact those on an Android system.
