“If a picture is worth a thousand words, a video is worth a million,” said Catherine Connelly, Vice President of Brand Strategy at The Meet Group. “Long our top requested feature, one-on-one live video provides the opportunity to get to know someone safely without exchanging phone numbers. One-on-one video adds yet another tool in our safe meeting toolkit, something we encourage all our members to do before they consider meeting in a safe place. What’s more, short of meeting in real life, nothing provides a better sense of who a person is and whether or not there is chemistry than a one-on-one video chat.”

By simply tapping the video chat icon on the MeetMe app, members can initiate video chat requests to those with whom they have previously exchanged messages. Members can only receive video chat requests from people they have already communicated with. Recipients have the option to accept or decline any incoming video chat request, and they may also choose to block or report abusive users through our one-tap report abuse feature.

“Having launched industry-leading Report Abuse buttons just last week, we are thrilled to activate yet another feature aimed at helping users stay safe while meeting new people on our platform,” continued Connelly. “With roughly 50% of our daily active users on MeetMe engaging in one-on-one chats without visiting our broadcast video feature, we believe one-on-one video chat has the potential to introduce more users to our interactive video platform to make meaningful connections. We look forward to expanding one-on-one video chat to our Skout and Tagged apps in the coming months.”
