video chats
Face-to-face digitally
Video chats are real-time conversations conducted over the internet with live video and audio, allowing participants to see and hear each other through cameras and microphones.
The term covers both the activity and the sessions themselves: We have a family video chat every Sunday.
Video chat became ubiquitous during the COVID-19 pandemic, replacing in-person meetings for work, school, and socializing.
