Make group calls on your Meta Portal
You can make group calls on your Meta Portal using your Meta Portal contacts, Messenger Rooms, and other apps. Other call participants do not need a Meta Portal to join the call.
Make a group call on your Meta Portal
- From Apps, tap Group Call
- Tap the people you'd like to add to your call.
- When the person you're adding to the call answers, they will join the group call.
Keep in mind, when you make a call from your Meta Portal contacts, you can't have both Messenger and WhatsApp users on the same call.
Group calls with Messenger connections
With Meta Portal, you can add up to 7 Messenger connections to a call for a total of 8 people, including yourself. You or other connections on your call can add any Facebook friends or Messenger connections to your call.
Group calls with WhatsApp contacts
A total of 4 participants can be on a group call. However, if a call is started from WhatsApp on an Android phone or iPhone, you can have a total of 8 participants, including yourself. You or other contacts on your call can add any WhatsApp contacts to your call. In order to call any WhatsApp contact from your Meta Portal, the contact must have WhatsApp open or in standby mode on their mobile phone.
