The video calling feature is available to all platform users as part of the latest update Android i iOS, specifically through the contact page. All calls are then secured by end-to-end encryption. To verify this encryption, Telegram uses a string of four random emojis on the display of each of the participating users - if the string of emojis matches on all sides, users can be sure that their video call is securely encrypted. Video calls are currently only available in the Telegram mobile application, and for now it only offers the possibility of connecting two users, but support for group calls will be added in the coming months. Video calls in the Telegram application will also receive additional features and improvements in the future.
