New Feature: Mobile WebRTC Video & Audio Calls

Here at RumbleTalk, we’re all about enabling human connections. So a couple years ago, we started using WebRTC to allow users in the chat to connect to each other with live audio and mobile video call.

New Technology: Mobile Video Call

Since then, the technology has evolved dramatically. We are pleased to announce that we have launched our video and audio call feature with the latest RTC technology. This means clearer calls, crisper images, and better connections.

Best yet, the chat now includes video and audio calls in mobile. So even if they’re out and about, users can participate in any RumbleTalk chat room just like users on desktop, with the ability to have audio and video interactions too.

New Features

Besides audio and video on mobile, other new features have been added making the chat even more user-friendly. Most of all, audio and video calls now allow:

  • Muting the sound
  • Muting video display

It sounds simple, but it makes for an overall great chat experience, whether users are typing, audio chatting, or sharing their thoughts in video.

So now, with the latest technological advancements, you can take full advantage of group chat right on your website. For more details or to see it for yourself today, visit our live demo.

New Feature: Send Video Messages

This just in: you can now send your own video messages with RumbleTalk! This is an addition to RumbleTalk existing audio messages.

There are two ways you can use the feature:

send photos and video messages

  1. Record up to thirty seconds video messages and sent it to the public room so the whole group can see it.
  2. Record up to thirty seconds of video message solely for private chats.

Whether a public group chat or a private discussion with a moderator or between chatters, you can record a video messages and send it to the chat with the click of a button.

How Video Messages Recording Works

With this special feature you can record all sorts of things, from a custom greeting for everyone who enters the room to see, to a farewell message; or a short explanation of math problem in a chat for students, to a visual illustration of a graph for a group of day traders.

In combination with audio messages, this new feature helps user to interact more within the chat room.

However, you choose to make the most of it! We hope you enjoy using extended video recordings. And stay tuned to this space for more new features coming soon!

New Feature: Chat Mentions

We are pleased to announce a new feature here at RumbleTalk: chat mentions.

While having a conversation in a chat room, you may need to call the attention of a specific team member. With mentions, simply type the person’s username with an @ before it in your message to grab their attention.

For example: “Hey @John, wondering if you got my message?”

If you @mention someone in a room, their name will be highlighted in blue.

Then, anyone clicking on the name will open a private message window with the person; this of course if private messages are set to “on” for all.

Note: in the event the user has already left the conversation, an empty private message will show.

Here’s a quick recap.

How to post a chat mentions?

  1. Type your message in the text box.
  2. Type the “@” symbol before the username(s) when addressing a particular user(s). Example: “I like your style @Username!”
  3. Click enter to post.
