Videophone calls

People who use Sign Languages such as British Sign Language (BSL) or Makaton sometimes use videophones for their telephone calls. Follow our tips below to make sure you are getting the best from your videophone conversation:

• It's important to use your videophone in an area with good lighting

• You will get a clearer picture if you use a plain background with no shadows

• It may help to wear plain clothes, as patterns can be distracting

• You can connect your videophone to a larger screen such as a television.

Visit the BT videophone website for more information.

You can also make calls through a computer that has a webcam. See our Computers and More section for more information.
