Abstract
Apparatus, methods, computer readable media and processors operable on a wireless device may manage video calls on a wireless device. A video call management method may include a video call management application operable on the wireless device. The video call management application may be configured with a filtering parameter, which may be applied to a received video call to determine a manner of processing the video call. Based on the filtering, the video call may be processed in any number of predetermined and/or user-defined manners. Further, information relating to the incoming video call may be stored into a call log viewable by the user.
