How to Use Video Chat on Facebook Messenger on Mobile

Once the app is installed on your smartphone or tablet, open it and tap the search bar to find the contact with whom you want to video chat. If you’ve previously sent messages to or called friends in Messenger, they’ll appear below the search bar.
Select the person, and then tap the Video Chat icon at the top right.
When you receive a call, Messenger immediately notifies you, and you can accept or decline.
When you’re on call, you’ll see your friend or family member in the center of the screen and yourself at the top right.

You can change the color of your background from the bottom row, add friends to your video call, mute your microphone, or end the call.
