When you try to video chat someone in Facebook Messenger, and they are already in a video call on Snapchat, will Facebook tell you they are in another call?
There are generally two possible situations regarding the status of calls in Facebook Messenger. This means that this messenger has two general approaches to the situation in which your call is waiting. One is when the person is video chatting or making a voice call with someone on a platform other than Facebook Messenger, and the second is when the person is talking on the Facebook Messenger app but with someone else. To clarify the answer to your question, we examine both cases.
When you call someone and they are talking to someone else on a platform other than Facebook Messenger
Suppose you made a video call with your brother via Facebook Manager. But no matter how long you wait, he will not answer the call. What happens in this case? What message do you see on your screen? How can you be sure why your brother does not answer the call?
You will not notice anything in your video call when the person you are calling is talking to another person who has called them via cellular calls because his other call is outside the Facebook Messenger platform. But there are two cases. One is that his phone is connected to the Wi-Fi internet, and as a result, he is online while talking on the phone. Second, his internet will be provided through mobile data, in which case his access to the internet will be cut off during a cellular call. In both cases, you will hear the phone ringing. But the difference is that the person you called, in Wi-Fi mode, realizes that you are calling. That is, in the mobile notification bar, it sees your incoming call. But if he does not have internet access, he will notice your video call after he hangs up. So you will have the calling status on the other side of the line, not ringing.
What if they are already in a video call on snapchat
If his other video or phone call is through other messenger apps like Snapchat, the latter is the case. Because he has access to the Internet, then your video call notification will be displayed on the mobile screen. But Facebook will not tell you what platform the other party is talking about. In fact, you will only hear the beep, which means the phone is ringing.
When you call someone and they are talking to someone else on Facebook Messenger
In this case, you will find out because the person you are talking to is also talking to someone else through the Facebook platform. In what way? In fact, in this situation, no call is made, and you hear a quick beep. This means that the person you want to make a video or voice call with is talking to someone else. So, he does not notice your call because his line was busy. You will also see the message busy on the mobile screen. Therefore, we conclude that Facebook Manager only understands calls made through its own platform. Otherwise, either your call will notify the person you are trying to make a video or voice call to, or their phone will not ring because they do not have an internet connection. However, sometimes due to internet disruptions, even though the person you want to call is not talking to another person, he will not see your call, and his phone will not ring.
