Interface
 icons for your contacts, invites, and settings
 Tango search your phone's address book
 send invites via e-mail or text message to anyone in your
address book
 Find a contact that also uses Tango, you're ready to make a call
Pros and Cons
 Video calls can be quite smooth if both sides are
connecting from faultless access points.
 Tango is just so plain and simple that smart phones
can probably use it without much problems.
 Video quality is uneven.
 Long delays and poor voice-syncing in video calls.
Video Calling and Performance
 As with other video calling software,
video and audio quality are rather good when both
parties using a strong Wi-Fi access point
 video quality on Tango is a good deal better than
on Fring
 Voice-only calls fared better
Any teaching merits?
If there is a solid and high speed connection
could be used for :
 listening ( e.g. live connection with a native speaker or
someone fluent in English)
 giving a lecture on a topic by an expert
 Practicing speaking
 Practicing short sentence writing through free messages
My personal experience
 Once I used it in my MS class:
 For the first 10 minutes it was fine.
 Then the quality of the sound changed
 Gradually it became useless.
 Although it was only useful for 10 minutes, the
students liked it very much and it was a fairly good
experience.
