Around 2.0 - Video calls for the future of hybrid-remote work

Wow. You've come a long way from the previous version. Can't wait to give this a try!!

Been using Around for a week and it's been delightful. Really looking forward to what comes next!

Congrats!

Sounds great! 💯

Amazing product idea. Congrats on the launch.

Wow - so cool. Thank you for solving this problem!

I've used the early version of Around and this looks like an exciting update. I think it could be a game-changer for those of us looking at a hybrid IRL / remote work future. But @garrytan I have to ask - everyone in the video that was introduced with some context EXCEPT Margo!?! There's "Tom from Around, Margo, Dom, CEO from Around, and my friend Ryan Hoover." Does Margo also work at Around? (I assume she does and probably plays an impt role) Why leave her out and mention everyone else? I am sure it's a great product and congrats to the whole team.

Audio calls at the same table are often hell, it's great that someone is working on this problem. @dominikbalogh Are you planning to have something like an API for integrating with other products? For example, if a product needs to integrate high-quality calling functionality into its product, will third-party developers be able to redirect to your product using URL schemes or something like that?

Oh this is awesome! Really brave given Zoom's position in the market

hey @dominikbalogh - this app is amazing, makes fun, brings fresh wind into the meeting world ;) but.. i would like to mention some point that could be improved: - RAM consumption (under windows) is way too high when using fill screen share, up to 30% - when sharing the whole screen, the others always see a big black square - because the around app window is blacked out for others and shouldn´t be visible at all when sharing the screen, i always have to switch to fireplace mode and then minimize it... but then i no longer see my partners... so both ways, not perfect ;) - when sharing full screen, it would be nice if people could point to something or draw a line, in other words: there is this "pointing" feature missing we all know from slack, which is very nice.. because right now, people always say: no, the other one, no, more up... no, more left... oh boy, so annyoing ! ;-) - and last but not least: requesting control while screen sharing is NOT working. if you click on "accept" the other person always sees "has been denied" - a bug ? but beside that points, the app is really great !! if you could fix these points, there is no longer a need using slacks internal call feature ;)
