The update brings two-way HD video calling now on A7 devices i.e. iPhone 5S, iPad Air and iPad Mini Retina. The feature was previously introduced too however due to lack of processing power, it was abandoned in the last versions. However the new Apple’s 64-bit devices are powerful enough to feature it. Now you can make use of both the cameras of your device during video-calling.
