 who forwarded suggestions my way, both through H-T and personally!

As I seriously overthink this, my current  top candidates (in no order of preference) are: Skype, Viber, Telegram, Threema, and Signal.

Subject: Int'l phone calls

Seeking sugg'ns on how to talk to a friend traveling in Egypt and India, cellphone to cellphone.
It's not about SIM cards, which phones, plans, etc. -- I've seen those discussions.
I'm just looking for an alternative to WhatsApp. Maybe something here?: <!-- #yiv7001336643 _filtered #yiv7001336643 {} _filtered #yiv7001336643 {} _filtered #yiv7001336643 {font-family:Cambria;panose-1:2 4 5 3 5 4 6 3 2 4;} #yiv7001336643 #yiv7001336643 p.yiv7001336643MsoNormal, #yiv7001336643 li.yiv7001336643MsoNormal, #yiv7001336643 div.yiv7001336643MsoNormal {margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman";} #yiv7001336643 a:link, #yiv7001336643 span.yiv7001336643MsoHyperlink {color:blue;text-decoration:underline;} #yiv7001336643 a:visited, #yiv7001336643 span.yiv7001336643MsoHyperlinkFollowed {color:purple;text-decoration:underline;} #yiv7001336643 .yiv7001336643MsoChpDefault {font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Cambria;} _filtered #yiv7001336643 {margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in;} #yiv7001336643 div.yiv7001336643WordSection1 {} --> https://www.maketecheasier.com/alternatives-to-whatsapp/
It's an iOS-to-Android phone connection, so no FaceTime, far as I can tell. We just want to talk -- don't necessarily need to see each other on the little screen.

This is probably simple -- I've just never done it before. 

Thanks for any advice,
Eddy Goldberg
