Jio Fiber users can now easily enjoy video calls from their smart TVs, and the most important thing is that they will not even need any external camera or webcam for this. The company has launched a new feature to facilitate this service. This new feature is named ‘Camera on Mobile’, which is available for Android and iOS devices.
This feature can be operated through the JioJoin app (earlier named JioCall). It allows users to use their phone’s camera as an input device for video calls. It enables video-calling through JioFiberVoice which is bundled with Jio Fiber service, to provide calling facility to broadband users. Apart from this, customers can also use the JioJoin app on their mobiles to make voice calls using their landline numbers.
Let us tell you that the company was testing the ‘Camera on Mobile’ feature for the last few months, although now it has been introduced for both Android and iOS users.
How to make video calls:
To start making video calls on your TV using your mobile device’s camera, you need to first configure your 10-digit Jio Fiber number on the JioJoin app. This will allow the app to connect your phone as a companion device to your Jio Fiber connection.
Once you are done with the configuration, you need to enable the ‘Camera on Mobile’ feature from the JioJoin app settings. After this you can now use your phone as a webcam to make video calls through your TV. This process is very easy and convenient.
Jio Fiber users are advised to switch their modem to 5GHz Wi-Fi band for better video calls. However, you can take advantage of this feature on the 2.4GHz band as well. The JioJoin app can be downloaded by the user through Google Play and App Store. It will require devices equipped with at least Android 6.0 or iOS 10.0 to operate.
