Overview
Sendbird Calls for React Native provides direct calls where users can make and receive audio or video calls with real-time voice and video in a client app. Users can receive the call when the app is in the foreground or closed and handle an ongoing call by muting the audio or stopping the video. When the call is over, call information can be retrieved to show the call results and the users who engaged in the call. The 1-to-1 call is useful for facilitating private audio and video communication between two users.
