    Are you the autor? People here is friendlier if the author answer technical questions.

    Does it has a whiteboard? I teach math in the first year of the university, and each T.A. has a very strong preference of a video call software, mostly about the whiteboard.

      This is for making landline and mobile phone number calls. No video calls

        I was confused because the lasts version of Skype had video too.

        Here most of the people just use WhatsApp, WhatsApp, WhatsApp. I?m not sure how easy is to make a mobile to landline call in WhatsApp, but landlines are disappearing..

          So app to app calls are different thing. Both parties needs to have same app installed. https://callspark.app let's you call any number without an app, imagine international student wants to call a university and universities do not have their number on wahtsapp. Imagine you have to call IRS or something like your bank support number they sure don't have whatsapp. Landline is not disappearing.

            I used Skype and other app like this a long time ago. My bank here in Argentina has a WhatsApp number, they are pushing it, probably because it's cheaper (I think they have a bot, and I'm not sure if you can escalate to a human. I use the phone anyway, because all the easy task are solved in the webpage/app, and if I call it's probably something weird. They have a bot in the telephone line anyway, but if you press the correct menu items you can get a human eventually.)
