Facetime is an extremely popular app for making voice and video calls intended for iOS and Mac OS users. That means that it is available on Apple devices only.
This app still allows you to make calls via Wi-Fi, 4G, and now even 5G absolutely for free. One more significant advantage is the support of group audio and video conferences. For audio, you can talk to up to 32 participants simultaneously — the feature was expanded in recent updates. And when it comes to video, you can now invite up to 6 friends or colleagues. Besides, you are free to switch between the front and rear cameras during a call without interrupting the conversation. Convenient, isn’t it?
Many users still wonder: “Can I use FaceTime without a SIM card?” Sometimes people prefer not to link their personal mobile number to an account — for example, when they do not want to receive work calls after hours, or when they need several Apple IDs for business tasks. So, let’s take a closer look at how this works today.
