My daughter recently sent me a link to load the Marco Polo app on my phone. I had no idea what it was. I did so and now I am receiving beautiful videos from my two year old granddaughter. It's different than Skype (more like walkie talkie). They live on the opposite coast, so we don't see each other often enough. This morning I got a video of her singing the ABC song in the back seat on her way to preschool. I love this !!!

Have not heard of this and most likely wouldn’t use it myself, but my niece is always posting family vid snippets on FB, she’d probably be very interested - thanks @pattypeep

I have it, but I don't really see a need for it with facetime.  You can also video chat on skype and messenger.  I only downloaded it because a friend asked me to, but I don't like it.
