Group Chatly has just rolled out one of its most exciting updates yet — live video chat for private groups. This new feature turns every group into a real-time meeting space where members can see, hear, and collaborate instantly, all within the secure Group Chatly environment.
🎥 Seamless Real-Time Collaboration
Group Video Chat makes it easy for everyone in a group to join a live stream together. Once inside, members automatically appear in a shared video grid. Each participant has full control over their camera and microphone, can mute or turn the camera off, and can leave or rejoin at any time. The interface updates live to show who’s online, so the entire group stays in sync.
👥 Live Participant View
When you enter a video room, you’ll now see every member who has joined the session — including yourself. Each participant is displayed with a video tile and a small name chip in the roster bar above, along with a live online count. Whether it’s a study group, a private community, or a team huddle, everyone connected is visible in one place, giving the room a more natural, collaborative feel.
⚡ Built for Performance and Privacy
The system uses peer-to-peer WebRTC connections optimized by Group Chatly’s WebSocket infrastructure for low-latency communication. Only authenticated group members can enter, and the connection automatically handles joining and leaving events. When someone joins, they appear instantly; when they leave, their tile and roster entry disappear in real time — no refresh required.
🔒 Secure and Integrated
Group Chatly’s video chat ties directly into existing private groups, preserving each group’s membership rules and privacy settings. All sessions run over encrypted HTTPS and WSS connections to protect user data and ensure smooth, secure streaming.
🧩 The Next Step in Connected Networking
This update reinforces Group Chatly’s mission to provide state-of-the-art networking software that brings communities closer together. By merging text chat, private messaging, and now live video, Group Chatly gives users one connected hub for meaningful conversations — without leaving the platform.
