Make & Receive an AT&T Video Call

AT&T Video Call lets you make and receive HD Voice calls combined with real-time video.

INSTRUCTIONS & INFO

MAKE A VIDEO CALL: From the home screen, select the Dialer app.
Note: All AT&T Video Call participants need a video call capable device and a postpaid wireless account that is set up for AT&T HD Voice. At this time Video Call is only available between AT&T customers within AT&T HD Voice coverage areas. Each call uses both voice & data. The HD Voice part of the call is billed as a regular voice call, while the video portion of the call incurs data usage charges. No voice or data charges apply once a Video Call hands over to Wi-Fi.
Enter the desired number, then select the Video Call icon.
Note: The Video Call icon is dimmed if the person does not have the capability to receive a Video Call.
MAKE A VIDEO CALL FROM THE CONTACTS LIST: From the Dialer app, select the Contacts tab then select the desired contact. Select the Video call icon.

AT&T Video Call: Not available in all areas. Usage/Charges: Each Video Call uses both voice and data (unless on Wi-Fi). The voice portion counts towards voice minutes & video portion counts as data usage under your existing wireless rate plan. Requirements: All parties to a Video Call must be AT&T postpaid wireless customers with Video Call-capable devices, be located within AT&T HD Voice coverage & have Video Call set up on their accounts. Device selection is limited at this time. Unless disabled, Video Call capability is displayed to other Video Call-capable customers.
Note: Wi-Fi: Once started, Video Calls automatically switch to Wi-Fi if your device accesses an available Wi-Fi Internet connection. An AT&T wireless network connection is still required even while on Wi-Fi. Voice/data charges do not apply to Video Call over Wi-Fi. Incompatible services/Features: Certain features (Smart Limits, Ringback Tones, OfficeDirect and OfficeReach) are incompatible with Video Call. For more information, see the AT&T Video Call FAQs.
