Yahoo Announces Livetext, a Silent Video Chatting App
The app will launch Thursday in the U.S., U.K., Canada, Germany and France for iOS and Android.
Yahoo is getting back into the messaging app game, announcing a new video chat app — Livetext — that stays silent. The app will launch Thursday in the U.S., U.K., Canada, Germany and France for iOS and Android.
The app connects friends in a video live chat session, allowing them to type out responses, but doesn’t use audio. Livetext connects Yahoo users, so you’d need to know your friend’s Yahoo ID. If the user chooses so, it can match up Yahoo IDs with contact info in the phone.
