Vidme
This is a great new app that lets you send video messages to friends who are also learning
English. You can record a video message that lasts up to 60 seconds, and for an extra $1.25,
there is also a ‘Contact’ button that helps you find and contact other people who are learning
English. They can watch your video and reply to you with their own video.
Cost: $2.99 Available for all smartphones and tablets.
Extra in-app purchases: $1.25 for a Contact button to find other English language learners.
