Voice & video rooms

Does Linga Chat have group video calls?

Yes, Linga Chat has group video rooms where several people join a live video conversation at once, so you can practice a language face to face with native speakers and other learners in real time.

Group video rooms

Alongside audio-only voice rooms, Linga Chat offers group video rooms where several people join a live video conversation together. You see and hear each other in real time, which makes practice feel closer to talking with people in person than a text chat ever could.

Why video helps your speaking

  • Face-to-face cues — expressions and lip movement help you understand and be understood.
  • Real conversation with more than one person, so you learn to follow a group.
  • Natural pace that trains you to listen and respond in the moment.
  • Camera control — you decide when your video is on.

Room tools

Group video rooms come with the same organizing tools as voice rooms: a topic, room rules everyone agrees to, and invites so you can bring in the right people. You can also turn on a virtual background if you want to keep your surroundings private during a call.

Group video rooms are free to start and work on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Android and Windows. If a big group feels like a lot at first, you can begin with a one-to-one video call, or even a quieter voice room, and move up to group video rooms as your confidence grows.
