    Installed Facebook Messenger on my laptop, can't video call.


    Whenever I press the video call button, a notification appears which says "Turn On Camera. In your device settings make sure Messenger is allowed to use your camera." and has only two options "Cancel" and "Open Settings".
    I went to Camera Privacy Settings and Messenger was already allowed by default to use it, but still whenever I press the video call button I get the same notification.
    The webcam works fine on the facebook site.

    :)

    It doesn't work because Facebook hasn't added those features to their messenger app. What doesn't exist can't work.

    25 min and not a single view? Am I invisible? It's the 3rd place I ask about this and get ignored. Just tell me if it can be solved or not...

    Yes, I'm sorry, I just thought the post was somehow unseen (thought maybe waiting for a mod's approval) because the view count stayed the same. Then I saw the hover-over title feature to show the post. That's why maybe.
    Well it looks like there's no fix for now, from what I see the feature is still quite new for the app and that's maybe way. I reported the problem in the app's settings.
