Today’s latest technology and application news, a new feature for iOS15 that allows you to use FaceTime on Android devices

Date:

Apple has allowed users of Android devices and Windows computers to make calls in the FaceTime application, with a new feature added to the new iOS operating system that is now available for free download. In addition to the ability to video chat, FaceTime updates include a new phase view, portrait mode, the ability to schedule calls, as well as a watch party feature called Shareplay.

How to start a FaceTime call with someone using Android or Windows devices
FaceTime calls can be accessed using the link, as long as the person planning or initiating the call has an Apple device and an Apple account.

If you are an Apple user and you have downloaded iOS 15, here’s how to start a FaceTime call with someone using an Android or Windows device:

1. Open the FaceTime app on your phone.
2. Click the Create link.
3. A screen with FaceTime link goes from bottom to top. You can click Add a name to enter a name in your chat.
4. On the same screen, you will see options for sharing the link via SMS, Email, Twitter, Calendar or other apps on your phone. Or you can copy and paste the link yourself.
5. To join the call yourself, tap the name of the chat you created and then tap Add.
6. When an Android or Windows user taps, they will be taken to the waiting room, where they can be allowed to join the call by clicking the checkmark next to the name.
