Nice but..

So when I’m in a video call with someone sometimes their voices crack. Also I was talking to a friend but he was trying to show me something but the FaceTime didn’t let him cause of the internet but his internet was also fine until it finally let him show me something ,but it’s a very good app 💭.｡:･*ﾟ💫ﾟ*･.｡✼༶｡.:✽・ﾟ☆⋆｡𖦹°‧★
