Video Chat

Two-person Video Chat calls with a temporary joining code.

Start a short call in a browser or the native app, and share its four-letter code with another Magpie user. Both people sign in; camera and microphone controls are available during the call.

The Video Chat start page with meeting length choices and a call-code field for joining.

A call code for one other participant

The code admits one other person. The countdown starts when they join, and the room is temporary rather than a permanent meeting address.

During the call

Camera
Show your video or turn the camera off during the call.
Microphone
Mute or unmute your audio during the call.

What the call includes

Is this a booked meeting?

No. Video Chat is a temporary call, not a recorded booking.

How long can a call last?

Choose 2 or 5 minutes on Free, or 2, 5 or 10 minutes on Pro. The countdown starts when the second person joins. The call ends at its time limit or when a participant hangs up.

Can I call from a phone?

Yes. The Magpie app starts and joins the same two-person calls, with the call code in the call menu.
