Once you’ve selected contacts to connect with, you can send someone a video message or “Polo.”

1. On your Marco Polo home screen, tap a chat tile to open a conversation. 

2. Tap the blue camera icon to begin recording and the red stop icon to send your Polo. 

That’s it! The person you’re chatting with will be notified that you sent them a Polo and can watch it whenever they’d like, as many times as they'd like, and reply when it’s convenient. 👍
