A free mobile video communications software package, Tango allows users to easily connect with family, friends, and co-workers. It is a versatile software package that works on multiple platforms, including PCs, Macs, and various smartphones. It has a number of excellent features making this a mobile communications option well worth exploring.

The interface of Tango resembles a standard cellular phone. It has buttons near the bottom for adding contacts, viewing recent sent and received calls, an invite button, and a settings button. You can switch between video chat and voice with a tap of the screen. This application is optimized for mobile devices, and we loved that it works exactly the same on all them, so there is nothing new to learn if you switch phones or tablets. This communications software can also send video text messages. When you receive a call or text message, the contact's picture will appear on the display screen. The video chat sessions are about as good as can be found on the freeware communication market today and this product compares very well with its competition such as Skype.

Tango downloads quickly and you will be prompted to register with a name, phone number, and e-mail address. This allows you to be visible to contacts with Tango accounts and start communicating immediately. After the initial registration, no log-in or password is required. Overall, Tango is a great mobile communications package that is recommended for both personal and small-business use.
