How To Use Facetime On Android In 2021 Guide

How Does Apple FaceTime Work on Android?

Apple keeps its apps and services close to the chest and doesn’t open them up to competitors. However, the Cupertino giant had a change of heart in 2021, loosening the grip on FaceTime to allow Android users to join in. There’s still no FaceTime app on Android, but you can still be a part of a call using a link.
This means you can’t FaceTime your friends yourself, instead, someone will have to send an invite link for you to join in. You wouldn’t need to have an Apple ID or have to create one. You just have to enter your name to get started. Sounds easy right? So let’s see how to join FaceTime calls on Android and PC.

As explained earlier, to join a FaceTime, you will have to ask someone to create and send you an invite link. This can only be done via an iPhone or iPad running on iOS 15 or later, and a Mac running macOS Monetary or newer. Here’s how you can create one.
