VIPole iOS update 1.3: video calls and advanced security settings for chats
If you are the user of VIPole application for iOS, you can video call your friends right now. During video calls, your data is encrypted and transferred via secure channels, just like during voice calls.

During a video call you can:
- Switch between the call, chats and other application features,
- Switch between the front and the back camera and turn the camera off,
- Set the image quality: LD, SD or HD,

New security settings
The IP hiding feature is added to the security settings tab: More > Security > Hide IP during calls > Hide IP for all contacts.
In the new version of VIPole for iOS, auto delete messages in personal and group chats can be set individually in the security tab of each chat. Click on the Security icon in the toolbar over the top of the chat and set the suitable time for removing messages: from 1 minute to 3 months. Auto deleting will be applied to messages in the chat since the moment the option was chosen.
