How to use FaceTime on an Android Device – Guide
Apple has announced that Android users can now participate in FaceTime calls, but there is a catch. FaceTime is a voice and video call service that is popular among iPhone owners, and Apple has stated that Android users will not be able to use FaceTime calls. This decision by Apple may be motivated by the fact that Android users are more likely to use their phones for other activities, such as browsing the web or playing games, than making phone calls.
Android users can’t participate in FaceTime calls, only iPhone owners can initiate them.
Steps to join a FaceTime call on an Android device
Apple users need to create a link and select how they would like to share the link – via email, messages, Snapchat, etc. before allowing an Android user to join the FaceTime call from their Android devices.
Step 2: Click on the three lines in the top right corner of the window. Step 3: Select “Inspect Element.” Step 4: In the “Inspect Element” window, click on “Source.” Step 5: In the “Source” window, you will see a URL that is similar to this one: chrome://flags/#enable-web-security-features. Step 6: Copy and paste this URL into your browser’s address bar. https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/flags/#enable-web-security-features ..
Step 2: Now, in Google Chrome, enter your name and tap ‘Continue’. If you do not have a Google account, you can create one at google.com/accounts. After creating an account, enter your name and tap ‘Continue’. ..
Step 3: Click the green ‘Join’ button in floating pop-up.
After the Android user accepts the ‘membership request’ from the Apple user, the two devices will be connected and work together.
After both users join the call, the Android user can see a full screen with buttons to mute, flip screen, full screen, show/hide camera, exit the call and more.
