On February 16, journalists observed that the Doubao application had temporarily disabled its video call capability. A notification on the app's interface stated that the function was currently inaccessible due to an overwhelming number of users during the Spring Festival season, likely attributable to computational overload. Notably, on Chinese New Year's Eve, Doubao is set to participate in red packet exchanges via the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. As of the time of reporting, ByteDance, the parent company, had not issued any official response.
