https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/group-video-chat_en_hero-shot.jpg?w=730&crop=1Snapchat has today introduced a new group video chat feature, letting users chat with up to 16 of their closest friends. If users need more people in the chat (which, for those of us who have large conference calls, sounds awful!), Snap is also offering group voice calls with up to 32 participants.The feature is relatively simple. Just tap the video icon in a group chat to get started, or start up a call with a few people and invite new friends to join.As one might expect, Snapchat’s crown jewel filters will also be available to use within a group video chat.Folks that aren’t camera ready can easily toggle between voice and video to just voice.https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/group-video-chat_en_3.jpg?w=800&crop=1Snap first introduced group chat and video chat in 2016, looking to give people new ways to communicate on the image-first platform. Snap says that the community is making millions of calls a day since launch.That said, it’s worth wondering about the timing of this new feature, which comes almost two years after the company announced video chat. It’s possible that Snap wants to take advantage of the #deletefacebook movement offering people as much functionality as possible to connect on their platform instead of the incumbent’s.It’s also worth

Trying to video chat 16 people would get fairly intense 😂
