Big improvements to Facetime in iOS 15 (Photo: Apple.com)
One of the big improvements in iOS 15 is that FaceTime has been completely revamped and has been “opened up” to all platforms. Now it not only works for iPhone users and that's especially nice.
Possibly, if you're not a regular at FaceTime you won't notice the improvement, although now you can do many more things than you couldn't before. You will have the possibility to send a message to the person you are talking to, watch a movie with them with SharePlay (Disney+, ESPN+, HBO Max, Hulu, MasterClass, Paramount+, Pluto TV, TikTok, Twitch and many other services go to integrate this function in their apps), create a link to make group calls, differentiate the voice from the ambient sound, etc.
A change was needed in Facetime and iOS 15 has done it:
With the pandemic and teleworking we use FaceTime, or many other video call applications, with our people on a daily basis. As I mentioned on some occasion, I know cases of people who have changed their operating system to be in contact with their people since FaceTime gave them that possibility, but it is true that something was missing thatiOS 15 got.
Now you can have a video call with anyone, whether they have iPhone or not. It may seem silly, but if you've been in the Apple ecosystem for some time, you'll understand what I'm saying.
New Facetime interface in iOS 15
I think FaceTime needed this update. Maybe some of the new features, like SharePlay , I'll never use, but the rest excites me. Being in a group and knowing who is speaking, I love it but it reminds me of some other app .
Portrait mode in video calls is another of the innovations that greatly improves the Apple video conferencing system, as well as the new microphone modes that separate the user's voice background noise making any type of conversation much clearer whatever the background noise.
I'm going to continue burning my phone, which is now plugged back into the charger and telling the news of iOS 15, which is more than we think.
Are you going to download a Beta? Which?.
