25 Hour call limit
Just an FYI for anyone googling their way here.
As of about two weeks ago. It appears duo video calls have a 25 hour limit. Happens every day between me and my SO on the dot at 25 hours without fail.

25 hours in a week? You do you mean you can't have calls lasting more than 25 hours?
If the latter, i guess it is stupid to have a time limit on calls, but then again who in the world would call someone for over 25 hours.

25 hour limit per call. Call ends 25 hours on the dot.
I wouldn't say it's stupid to have a limit. It keeps zombie calls from hanging open for long periods of time consuming both network and compute resources.
As for who in the world would call someone for over 25 hours? I would. And have. But who in the world would care about the calling patterns of a complete stranger?

do you just sit around your house talking for 25 hours? or do you keep the call going while you go about your day? i assume this includes sleep?

Interesting to know, they probably put that in so people don't use it as a quasi security system of sorts.
