Apple Introduced FaceTime Feature for PC and Android Users
Apple once introduced FaceTime, one of the most popular iPhone features. It allowed people to make video and audio calls, naturally, only on Apple devices. For many years, Apple overlooked the fact that your friends and relatives might have Android devices. Moreover, there was an entire segment of users who ignored mobile phones altogether. These individuals preferred only PCs, writes https://xrust.ru/. All of these users were left out of the program. Frustrating, isn’t it?
In 2021, the iPhone manufacturer corrected this oversight by enabling Android and Windows users to join FaceTime calls. This was one of Apple’s first steps to make its ecosystem more accessible. For example, while iMessage remains exclusive to iOS, Apple announced support for RCS as part of iOS 18 at its Worldwide Developers Conference in June. Rich Communication Services is widely used on Android phones for sending text messages, and Apple’s adoption is expected to improve the messaging experience between iPhone and Android users. However, this does not mean the end of blue and green message bubbles.
This announcement is another sign that Apple sees value in giving Android users access to some of its most well-known features, albeit on its own terms. When Apple announced the expansion of FaceTime access, many assumed that Apple had created FaceTime for Android. In reality, the company made it possible for people to join a FaceTime call via a web browser. This means Android and PC users can participate in FaceTime conversations. However, there is a catch — they cannot initiate calls themselves. An invitation is required. Now, the ability to initiate FaceTime calls for Android users has become available.
