Tango Adds Cross Platform Video Calling

While Apple’s much publicized Facetime video calling app only works on the iPhone and iPod Touch, Fring and Tango are video calling options for Android users that have the added benefit of providing calling between iOS and Android devices. Tango is the newest of the two services available for Android. While Tango is similar to Facetime in that it provides point-to-point video calling, it also works over 3G and Wi-Fi connections. Engadget tested Tango and found that it will only initiate calls with people that are in the phone’s contact list, and that call quality scales dynamically based on connection performance.
