Fam - Group video chat exclusively for iMessage

by
Top Hunter
•

Fam is the first live video application built in and for the iMessage interface. After you download Fam, it will appear in your iMessage keyboard. With just a few taps, you can have a group video chat with unlimited friends at once inside your current iMessage group chats and one-on-one conversations.

The eye reminds me of the Snapchat poster for its Snapbot location in New York 👁 I worry Im getting too old (at 26) to understand logistically how a group facetime can actually work haha. I always think with 3 or more people involved it becomes a mess, someone is always sat there in silence and you have to talk over each other to get heard. But then apps like this and Houseparty come along and take off and then it looks like I don't know what I'm talking about ha! OH and I absolutely have to tag @andrewett in here - he loves the word "Fam" 👊

@bentossell @andrewett Hey Ben, thanks for your comment! Appreciate the feedback. Group video is a new concept, and iMessage Apps are even newer of a concept. We truly believe that as people become educated on the power of enriching their already existing iMessage group chats that they will be able to share more and more meaningful experiences with each other. I agree that sometimes it may get noisy. We've been able to learn a lot though on how high school and college students alike behave in groups-- it's like none other. Welcome to the Fam!

Hi Product Hunt! We're Fam. We created Fam to give people a way to be with the people closest to them - friends and family. Your group chats are the best, most natural place for live group video hangouts. We're looking forward to your thoughts and feedback!

Congrats Giuseppe. I have been using Houseparty lately! Will definitely checkout Fam. Definitely a fan of group video chat, much more time efficient and effective way of communicating with friends.

I've personally never used facetime, but for some reason people really want group facetime, and its you guys have done a good job of doing what a lot of my friends have been begging for.
