See each other while you text. Visi brings live video, messages and voice together in the same conversation. TEXT WITH A FACE Turn on your camera when you want to share the moment. Keep reading and sending messages while you see each other, including in full screen. VIDEO THAT FITS YOUR CHAT Choose small video bubbles beside your messages, a window above the conversation or full-screen video. Pick the view that suits you and change it when you want. YOUR CAMERA. YOUR MICROPHONE. YOUR CHOICE. Control your camera and microphone independently from the top of the chat. Share video without speaking, talk without video or just keep texting. Muting your microphone still lets you hear the other person. WORDS AS THEY HAPPEN With live typing, words appear while your friend writes. Choose whether to share live typing across your chats or change it for one conversation. CATCH UP TOGETHER Catch up one to one or bring friends together in a group. Send photos and voice notes, react to messages and pick up the conversation later. Find people by username or send an invite link. PRIVATE CONVERSATIONS Messages, photos and voice notes are end-to-end encrypted. You can use text chat without granting camera or microphone access. Available on iPhone and iPad, and on compatible Apple silicon Macs.
