User Reviews

Most reviewers praise Prison Video for clear video and sound and ease of use, and for helping families stay connected with incarcerated loved ones. When functioning, it’s a practical, heartwarming way to chat. However, repeatedly cited issues include onboarding and sign-in problems, unstable connections during video calls, and slow or unresponsive support or processing delays.
Pros
  • Excellent video and audio quality.
  • Very easy to use and navigate.
  • Convenient for families to stay in touch with loved ones in prison.
  • Regular video calls help maintain emotional connection with incarcerated relatives.
Cons
  • Account setup and sign-in problems (verification emails failing, details being rejected, cannot sign in).
  • Unreliable connections and video calls (long connection times, getting stuck on connecting, calls dropping).
  • Delays in processing requests and poor responsiveness from support (requests not answered for months).
Recent reviews
keeps saying no slots available in next 14 days, app says this every day for last 2 months. Notifications keep coming up that calls are available but doesn't give me date/ time like it has done previously.
