Steps to calling someone on Houseparty
Calling someone on a Houseparty is very easy. You will first need to open up the Houseparty application, of course. When you do open it, you can either swipe up (if you are using an iPhone) or click on the smiley face icon that is located in the top right corner of your screen to access your friends’ list.
Find a friend that you want to call. Right next to their name, a small green phone logo should be located. By clicking on that green phone logo, you will be sending a call to them. So, go ahead and click on that. As soon as they pick up, you will be able to communicate with each other, as simple as that.
And if you get a message that your call has not been sent, or that you are unable to make calls, keep reading this article to fix your problem.
If you are not able to call someone on Houseparty
There are a few reasons why you are not able to call someone on Houseparty:
- You do not have internet access.
- Your friend has deleted the Houseparty application from their device.
- The cache memory of the Houseparty application on your device is full.
- Your phone does not have enough memory in order for the Houseparty app to work properly.
- The whole Houseparty application has crashed or has run into a bug.
But, what can you do?
You can check and see if you have a stable internet connection while trying to call someone on Houseparty. See if your device is connected to your Wi-Fi, or if your mobile data is turned on. You can also head over to your Wi-Fi router and check to see if a green light is burning under the Internet section. If it is not, it means that you do not have internet access right now. You are able to restart your router, wait, and see if the internet is back. Or, you can call your internet provider and ask them to give you some more information and some solutions to your issue.
To clean the cache memory from your phone, you will have to open up the Settings of your phone and then find the Applications section. There find the Houseparty app and open the preferences. You will be able to see the cache memory section there, click on it to delete it. Then go ahead and try to call your friend again to see if it works now.
If your phone does not have enough memory or RAM, some applications and programs may not work the way they are supposed to. In order to fix that, you can uninstall and delete the applications that you do not use that often. Also, to free up some space on your device, you can delete the photos and videos that you do not need.
There is a chance that the whole Houseparty platform is currently down. You cannot really do anything about it. Just wait for a while, and check often to see if the platform has started to work again.
