Calls: During a video call, there are a minimum of two video screens displayed. The small screen located, by default, in the upper left of the display is your local video; this video is displayed on the main screen for the Resident. The Resident's video is displayed, by default, in the larger (main) screen area on your device.
Local Video Position: When in a video call, you can reposition the local video by dragging the local video to the desired location.
Group Calls: If Group Calling is enabled for your account, the Resident and as many as three additional callers can participate in a group video call. During a group video call, the individual videos are placed in a two by two grid and the individual videos cannot be repositioned.
