  • Who doesn’t love it?

    FaceTime is overall great I just have one problem idk how to solve. There’s this one group of ppl who created multiple Group FaceTime’s and keep ringing me like 15 times a minute and there’s no way for me to block just the FaceTime call. I tried blocking everyone on the call but the notifications were still coming. Either way I don’t wanna block them because some of my friends are also added on these FaceTime calls.
    Is there anyway to mute a Group FaceTime call?
    Btw I’m obsessed and addicted to FaceTime it’s the best thing ever
    TYSM!
  • I love it, it just..

    I really love this app I have experienced a lot of amazing thing’s on here but every time I wanna add a email to a FaceTime call it doesn’t work…I have to constantly ask the person i’m on the phone with to add it, My iPad is a email and my phone is a number and I just thought if it was only me..orr, But my other friends are able to add there own iPad. And then I just love the FaceTime options of course even off screen you have them.
  • I love it

    I’ve been using FaceTime since I got an iPhone when I was younger. I love it soo much. One thing I wish we could do is for the couples that sleep on FaceTime throughout the night for one reason or another I wish there was a way we could I mute the other person when they have fallen asleep and forgot to mute themselves because sometimes they have loud roommates and the volume button isn’t always enough.
  • Improvement Idea?

    Hopefully one day, Apple creates an option to leave a video voicemail. That would be amazing. Imagine just waking up to a FT video - voice - mail from a loved one on your birthday. I feel it would be more meaningful when one actually tries to call and somehow it doesn’t get through because they’re busy—just leave them a video mail. In all honest, we need that face to face contact without being face to face. Plus, who really listens to voicemails nowadays??
  • Bug Report

    Ever since iOS 15, facetime is almost ALWAYS buggy. There is not one single day where I can go on without getting facetime bugs - ranging from not being able to get out of shareplay, only staying on the connecting screen once the other person has answered, to facetime calls breaking usability on my phone and having to force a restart. Also how annoying is it for shareplay, and I even disabled it in settings and it still gives me the prompt, to keep asking me if I want to shareplay my screen each time I switch over different streams on Twitch. I’ve resorted to Discord video calling my friends, please give me a software update that fixes these bugs.
  • asapcrazy

    Okay so ofc I love this app you get to talk to your friends and family but there’s one problem for me. The update just made me mad. I was so excited for the update and then we get this. I know most of you probably like the update but ima tell you why I’m upset. I was checking my settings for the longest time over and over just to see if the update came yet , because apparently you could share your screen. Then we got it but, I can’t even share my screen or see other peoples screen. When other people try to share theirs, their camera just zooms out but still doesn’t show me anything , so when I’m on a gc they start sharing cool things and I can’t even see it. At first me and my friend thought you can’t do it on phones, but then my sister gets a phone and boom! She can do it. Soooo what’s the problem?!! Is there a problem with my iPhone 11?
  • Facetime is absolutely wonderful

    FaceTime is really amazing. I use it to contact my family or friends when they're not around, the quality isn't the best but I can still hear them. Now on the the topic, I really think the program should have a sharing screen option. Me and my friend have to exit the app just to text each other our designs or drawings. It's starting to get annoying and I would be pleasured to not have to exit the app. This is just my opinion. The app is indeed good but just that one option would make things less hard.
  • No flip camera button

    I love FaceTime and is so useful, however with the new update, I can no longer find the button to flip the camera. Now I’m resorting to just turning my phone, which is a pain because when I do that, I can’t tell weather or not they can see it, because I can’t tell where I am pointing the camera. If their is a way, I would like to know, or if you would gets that fixed, that would be greatly appreciated.
  • Spatial audio

    Can there be a way to switch off spatial audio? Facetime mutes the participant actually talking, if there is background noise with another participant. This becomes annoying when doing informal 2-person calls or group calls. Works great with professional calls on Zoom when everyone can be muted but not when doing fun informal calls on FaceTime. An option to turn off spatial audio or turn it on- depending on the type of call would be great.
    And if this is not related to spatial audio, then repairing this glitch would be great.
  • AFTER SCREEN SHARING

    The problem that I'm seeing is when you are video-calling someone the initial size of the picture is full screen. Then one of you decided to share screen, so the screen went square and small. After screen sharing, the pictures stay square and small and don't go back to original full screen.

    Also, I can see weird icons like the 'video' icon and the '>' icon not displaying pleasantly when you are calling someone.
