Socializing Without Leaving the Comfort of Your Home

Taking social media connectivity to the next level, HouseParty provides an engaging platform to interact with friends and family from the comfort of your home. This social media application functions as a live video chat platform, accommodating up to eight users on a single video call. Not just limited to chatting, it also integrates fun elements such as games, making digital hangouts feel more like real-life gatherings. Uniquely, it supports the possibility to participate in multiple group calls - or "parties" - simultaneously.

Creating a Seamless Face-to-Face Connection

HouseParty's primary offer is its ability to create an effortless face-to-face connection for its users. This sets it apart from more traditional video calling applications. On opening the app, HouseParty instantly signifies which contacts are online and ready to engage in a video chat. It eliminates the formal request requirement synonymous with most video conferencing apps, facilitating easy access to calls with a simple click on the wave emoji beside a user's name to indicate availability.

The screen during video calls is split among participants in a way that allows everyone to see each other, creating an inclusive and engaging chat atmosphere. To maintain your privacy, you can lock your chat room, making it inaccessible unless access is granted.

More Than Just A Video Chat Application

HouseParty exceeds expectations by being more than a simple video chat application. It ensures your entire experience is engaging and enjoyable by incorporating gaming features that are simultaneously compatible with the video chat function. Games include Heads Up, Trivia, and Quickdraw, all supporting up to eight players making it feel more like a real party.

Inviting friends to HouseParty is a breeze as it seamlessly pulls contacts from social apps such as Snapchat and Facebook. However, users should be aware that call dropouts may be experienced with unstable Internet connections.
