Tellybean Video Calling

Decent app. Desperately needs a group calling feature - how am I supposed to convince people to go to the trouble of creating a new account with a new provider when they already have a Skype account, and the new one doesn't even have the same features? Only reason I use this instead of Skype is because it is the only video calling app for the NVidia Shield TV, and until group calling is enabled, I will likely try to find a way to make Skype work with my current setup.

Quite bit frustrated my Nvidia Shield Tv can't get TellyBean calls when TellyBean runs in the background. It needs to be in foreground. Can't receive calls when any other app is in foreground. Tellybean's answer makes full sense but --an option-- to get unattended call would be great

Unable to rename user name on mobiles

Good app

Nice

Hello, I installed the application on my new 2017 Nvidia Shield Tv and I try to used with Logitech C270 that it is supported according with your site. When I run test camera very rarely I have image, only microphone. If I unplug Nvidia from the power source and started again Nvidia Shield TV, and at first camera test I have also image. If I start again a camera test in 5 minutes I have only microphone and no image. I try to reset Nvidia and installed all from scratch and I get the same random image/video problem. After reboot the first time I run Tellybean I have image/video, after that I got only microphone working. Please do something or improve your support. I can not find any kind of information to help me with this problem.

In my Sony bravia TV this feature is not working please give me some information​ about this and it is also saying that it is not support webcam

On my mobile the app continues to crash when connecting the video stream. Reported to company but non responsive.

Good Skype alternative and no webcam needed

After losing Skype's TV video calls, I was sure I'd never again be able to video chat with my grandaughter on the TV screen. However, Tellybean came to the rescue, and now we chat across the miles several times a week. Tellybean's app offers a clear picture and sound, and its periodic updates promise that the app's good qualities will continue. Moreover, when I encountered a problem, they provided timely and excellent support to help identify the problem and solve it. Cami even answered immediately from Finland, despite the midnight hour, and Damien picked up the thread the next day. Clearly, their service went above and beyond what was required. I really appreciate their willingness to help, and I look forward to many video chats with my granddaughter.

I think the app has nice interface for tv. But one of request is to bring the app to the ios in that not only in iPhone but to ipad too, because some of us might not have good quality in mobile but they might have an iPad which has the capability

I have the logitech c922 web cam and it work flawless on my device. I recommend this app for video chatting thru a webcam on your TV with the best android tv device nvidia shield tv.

Is there a way I can use my Sony Bravia (55 W800C BRAVIA 3D LED) inbuilt usb camera? I want to avoid the use of mobile just for camera. Also, I have an iPhone, for which the video camera app is not available.

It is hard to use Tellybean! You have to install Tellybean client on TV, Tellybean Camera Client on Android devices, Tellybean Video Calling on Another devices. If one of the clients not started on two different Android devices, you will not be able to make Video Call on your TV. I hope in future two apps - Camera and Video Call will be integrated in one single app. If not..... it will be hard to use this app

Apps not bad for what it is. The only major problem is the audio and video are out of sync. The audio comes before the video! Which is very annoying. I'm using the Nvidia Shield Android TV with external webcam.

Finally happy for the video calls in SmartTV in 2016. But need to improve a lot. I not getting video in my TV(Sony Bravia KDL-43W800D) in video calls by using Tellybean camera app also. Can u please fix and make an option to edit my profile picture credentials. It will be superb after the update.

I have recently purchased a Sony Bravia kd-55W80D series Android tv. I have installed the aap on my tv with proper wifi connection but i am still facing the problem to communicate.kindly help me out in this

You need to work out how to create accounts other than via Google. Installed on my nVidia Shield TV so I could call my wife and child, guess what? Can't call from my phone due to both using the same Google account.

It is the best video calling app ever, great video and audio, my 8 year old granddaughter called me without assistance and then we had to my tic tac toe over the internet. lol

Nice video call very clear voice useful i am happy

Good

Koi batayega isko use kaise karte hai

Hi I can't login using my Gmail account using Nexus 5x on Android 7

Superb app.. Pls add feature of using TV camera for TV video calling, that would be better than using camera app from mobile..

Every time now I have to unplug my camera and reinsert for Tellybean to discover it. Used not happen before but not sure if apps fault or my Nvidia Shield.

Needs some additional features like ability to enable auto answering

Can auto answering be included in your next update please , It would be awesome for elderly suffering from dementia. It also need to be automated , auto answer ---> full screen tellybean video chat ---> chat end ----> tellybean minimize itself and last running application is now back in foreground.

AMAZING APP works with SOUND on my Nvidia Shield TV!! YIPEEEEEEEE

Kudos for thinking about Android TV users. I have Nexus Player, and so need an external camera (with Tellybean Camera Beta app) I would give it 5 stars if you can make an opensource linux version of that (so I could just plug my Raspberry Pi with camera and not waste a perfectly good phone on that)

not working with sony bravia 43w950c. I am unable to do video call. I got the video of the person with whom i have paired with this app while chating but they won't get my video...pls resolve the issue

Why do you have this work on a TV when it can't support the TV's webcam. Asks for a mobile device to use it's camera.

Good concept. Liked the idea and thought would work but the camera from phone always crashed and didn't work once.

CRASHES O STOP IF I COULD PUT NEGITIVIE 10 I WOULD

In my tv it is asking to connect to phone but I connect camara

Need auto answer. Please add the option: call auto answer for my contacts only.

not working with sony tv camera.....could u resolve that???

Can't get it to log in on Nvidia Shield TV.

When will you release the Android handset camera app that will work with Tellybean?

Revision. TellyBean reached out and worked the problem until they were able to get it resolved and the service back up and running on my system. They provided excellent customer service and attentiveness to their end users. The app is bear overall missing key features and integration with other popular video services. But it has great potential! 5-Star Customer Service

Update: Tellybean reached out to me and the issue turned out to be hotplugging of USB camera. I had to reboot and it worked fine. Nvidia Shield TV seems to be having issues with hot plugging USB devices. Tried this on NVIDIA shield with logitech webcam c930e. Tested it by doing test call and though it didn't show any video, it said everything is working. Then called my id from PC and it showed incoming call and i accepted it and it frooze entire nvidia shield tv. I had to hit home button and then force stop the app. I tried it multiple times and it never worked.
