Friends can now enjoy video chatting with all their friends at once.

House Party is a private video chat app that is available to iOS and Android users. House Party was created by the team that created Meerkat. Meerkat was an app that connects to Twitter and Facebook, which allows live streaming. Meerkat got shut down because they were in competition with Facebook live.

The revenue and funds were redirected to creating House Party. Apple users have the exclusive option of using FaceTime and Siri, while other devices such as Androids cannot use these features.

A popular trend for people of all ages is to communicate face to face on Skype or FaceTime. But House Party is more efficient than other apps. Skype is a far more complex and slower than House Party.

FaceTime only lets you have a one on one conversation. On the other hand, House Party allows you to talk to all members of your squad at one time and it’s easy to join a group chat. House Party gives an option to connect to your contacts and find friends. Despite the ability to choose and join a chat, you can lock the chat so that other people cannot pop in and out.

Whenever you or a friend logs onto House Party, a notification is sent to everyone on your friends list. Despite this, you can choose to not receive notifications from certain friends. This is similar to Skype in that you are able to “mute” or “unmute” a friend from your contacts list. However, House Party takes it to a whole new level because of the option of being able to join other group video chats without needing an invite. Every chat is open to all your friends on your contact list until it’s locked and made private.

Overall, this app gets a 10 out of 10 Blue Devil stars due to its efficiency, options, and easy accessibility. If you are looking to get a more intimate form of communication besides text messages and voice phone calls, then I recommend you check House Party out.
