Dear Members

I use an Iphone and an Ipad

I'm looking for good video call alternatives to Skype and landed at Tango

I'm unable to register to Tango from UAE. the local ISP / carrier , 'Etisalat' has blocked Tango, so right at the registration / authentication point, Tango stops working and say authentication not happening

(a) IF any of you have work arounds please let me know ; I am NOT very willing to use hotspot shield etc as these generally slow down things

(b) I hope some Tango developer folks get this message and help the million or so eager users in UAE and similar countries ready to Join Tango ; Viber has overcome this "authentication" problem in UAE using some innovative solutions (they call back instead of sending the code over SMS !!) . Now I see a lot of UAE users on viber; Tango has a ready user base here, just waiting to be tapped

Regards
 
The same to me

I download Tango in Vietnam and witnessed the same situation like you.
However, after moving to another place (another wifi connection) and it was ok then.
I guess some wifi suppilers they did not allow this kind of app because of political or business reasons ^^
Why dont you try it once again. Good luck to you! ^^
