I hate this app

2022-05-26

FaceTime might be good with other people but when I try to this app my cousin, it automatically ends. And when it works, after like 5 minutes it automatically ends again. This has been happening to me for months now and you need to fix this problem this app. Also I have an iPad Air 2 and why can’t I do the same things as the iPad 11? I mean I can’t put an emoji, I can’t write a text or anything like that! And it’s not a problem from my iPad, my iPad is perfectly fine. And if you didn’t add these features on the other iPads like the iPad Air 2, then you should add them. I recommend you download the other apps to call people. Including discord, justalk etc.

Freezes so often that it is unusable

2022-06-27

I’ve tried so many times to give this app a chance because my contacts all have iPhones. Yet, it is so consistently unreliable, and not even on particularly slow connections. It will just freeze, and be a constant source of frustration. I end up asking to switch to Skype each time, with no issue at all.

Even the audio only is so unintuitive. I’ve tried to place an audio this app call with the little telephone next to the camera of the contact, under this app, and I still get forwarded to a dial call instead. Once you turn on the camera for audio calls, good luck figuring it how to turn it off again.

Just terrible.

Bug Report

2022-07-28

Ever since iOS 15, this app is almost ALWAYS buggy. There is not one single day where I can go on without getting this app bugs - ranging from not being able to get out of shareplay, only staying on the connecting screen once the other person has answered, to this app 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.

Spatial audio

2022-08-29

Can there be a way to switch off spatial audio? this app 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 this app. 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.

FaceTime not working with one person.

2022-09-30

This issue has been happening since last year with me and my girlfriend. We can face time everyone else perfectly fine but when we face time each other it only works for certain period of time, and then magically stops working. An example is during January up until February 28th we can face time fine, and then the next day March 1st up until now we can't face time each other. I live in New York & she lives in California, I was starting to think that was the issue but that doesn't make any sense. I would really like a response or at least a fix to this, because I am starting to get irritated.

Okay so ofc I love FaceTime 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?

Love the app, hate the update

2022-12-02

I’ve always used this app and love it but the most recent update really ruined things. I love that you can have a bubble of the screen if you exit this app to use other apps at the same time, but the thing that I absolutely hate the most is that the end call button got switched to the top of the screen instead of the bottom. The button is half the size, I almost always miss it and it has made it 2x more difficult to end a call. Literally there is always an awkward silence at the end of every single phone call because neither of us can reach or tap the button quickly enough. Please change it back

No call received notification and no audio call option

2023-01-02

This one of great app of Apple. After updating to ios15 the new this app time audiobook only call is not possible from FaceTime directly. After making a audio call you will not see any notification after receiving the call (call time). You have to hold the phone on ear. People don’t always hold the phone on ear alway before receiving the call.

I do a lots of audio this app call but after update to iOS15 I am heavily struggling doing a audio call on this app.

I hope Apple will resolve the issue on next update.

This really helps though the update..

2023-02-03

I really love calling with this, and parts of the new update. Though, one part of the update really messes with me while playing.
Though I’m not sure if this has to do with FaceTime itself, it may be just an update with Apple, but I don’t really enjoy having to click just once in order to make the call full screen. I keep clicking on it accidentally, and I keep getting kicked out of FaceTime I’m in, and sometimes it won’t save my progress.
This feedback is about me suggesting making it so that when we click on the call, it has a “main menu” where you can end the call, make it full-screen, mute, etc., just like before the update. Though, I really enjoy being able to share screen, and the better quality of the call.

FaceTime is good but…

2023-03-07

this app has been a app I’ve been using since iOS 14 and it has worked for the past year. I can easily communicate with my friends and family through this app and iMessege, but a couple months ago, I couidn’t hear anyone if I was in a call if I had my Bluetooth headphones on and if I use my speaker, it would work but then 30 second later it would cut out. But if I use my old iPad 4th gen, it works perfectly so hope you fix that and I’m excited for the SharePlay thing to come out soon.

No flip camera button

2023-04-05

I love this app 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.

I love it

2023-05-07

I’ve been using this app 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 this app 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.

I like it I don’t like it

2023-06-07

I loved the this app voice calling full screen were it’s like a phone call without a keypad during it, but the new update is really short and you would have to go to the this app adding screen to make your screen full so that’s it, but what I love is that you have a this app link that you can share, and if you have a device that you cannot do Group this app, now it’s the time to do it! That’s it for now bye!

Amazing app!

2023-07-09

I absolutely love this app!! The quality is astonishing! It rarely lags and and the video is always great!! I use FaceTime all the time to call my friends and sometimes I need to screen share. Every time I try to though my friends always say that they don’t see anything even though it says that I’m screen-sharing. They say that my camera is off. Can you please fix this bug so I can screen share? Thank you and amazing app!! 👍🏽

Best App for Video Calls

2023-08-09

Works much better than Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp, which both have a weird audio warble that makes it difficult to have a conversation.

I think this app is at least as good as Zoom for audio/video quality, and is easier to make a call rather than having to make a room which makes quickly calling someone difficult.

Altogether it’s the best app for quickly video calling someone.

Improvement Idea?

2023-09-10

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??

Facetime is absolutely wonderful

2023-10-12

this app 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 FaceTime 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 FaceTime . This is just my opinion. FaceTime is indeed good but just that one option would make things less hard.

WOOO

2024-01-14

Hey!! I LOVE calling on FaceTime! it’s so easy and goes smoothly. One thing I wish you would add is the time you have been calling. Me and my friends wonder how long we’ve called sometimes and there is no way to tell. Unless you texted before the chat or remember what time. Again, amazing app!!! One more request… a permanent camera button. I know someone mentioned that recently, but i want to put it out there. When I am trying to get a funny picture of my friends on this app, I can’t capture that moment because it takes me so long to get it up there. Thank you!!

Good soup

Good

2024-11-15

this app is good because you can call all your friends and family. And those would be all the people you can text on Messages. So it is all safe. I would recommend you getting this if you can. Thank you to the editor for making this app possible.

Good
