TV Video Call turns the TVs you already own into a way to see your family big. You call from your phone or tablet, and the TV at home answers automatically — the video call comes up, full and clear, over whatever was playing. From their side there's no remote to reach for and nothing to press. It's built for the people in your life who never learned to use the tech: parents, grandparents, anyone for whom "just video call" isn't a small thing.
Starter is 250 connection minutes a month for $5; Pro is 1,000 for $15. Each device in a call uses one connection minute per minute, so a 3-minute call between two screens uses 6. Cancel anytime — a 48-hour money-back window on your first renewal.
The call comes up on the TV, not a phone in a hand. At home, the person sees you big and clear — the part of a video call that feels like being in the room. The big screen is the whole point.
You don't ring and wait for them to find the app and press accept. The video call comes up on the TV the moment you call — over whatever was playing. On their end there's nothing to press and nothing to learn, which is why the person who never learned the tech is still reachable.
No new device to buy and no box to set up. The living-room TV, the kitchen TV, the TV at their place — any Android TV becomes somewhere you can reach them.
Not a contact list with settings to dig through. Each entry is a TV with a place attached — Living Room TV, Dad's TV — so you always know who's home. One tap to call.

Connection minutes are counted per device in the call. A 3-minute call between two screens uses 6 connection minutes. Cancel anytime, keep your connection minutes until the end of the paid period, 48-hour money-back window on your first renewal — how it works.
These screens are the app. Pick a device and press Call. On their end, the video call comes up on the TV — big and clear — and there's nothing for them to do. (Video is shown as a dot-screen placeholder, not stock footage.)
Open TV Video Call on the TV and choose Pair this screen. A QR code appears within a few seconds.
Point your phone's camera at the code. Pairing happens through your account over the internet, so the phone and the TV do not need to be on the same Wi-Fi.
Give it a name your family already uses and put it in a room. It joins the list and, from then on, answers every call it gets automatically.
On the TV, open TV Video Call and choose Pair this screen. Its code appears within a few seconds.
Get TV Video Call on the phone you carry and on the TV in the house. One scan pairs the TV; after that, calls come up on it by themselves — even when you're away. New accounts include 6 free trial connection minutes so you can watch a real call come up on the big screen.
