FaceTime is a popular video and audio calling service developed by Apple. While it’s primarily known for its one-on-one video calling feature, did you know that FaceTime also allows you to make group video calls? In this step-by-step guide, we will show you how to make group video calls with FaceTime, allowing you to connect with multiple friends or colleagues all at once.

Step 1: Check Device Compatibility

The first thing you need to ensure is that your device supports group video calls with FaceTime. Group video calls are available on iPhone 6s or later, iPad Pro or later, iPad Air 2 or later, iPad mini 4 or later, and iPod touch (7th generation) running iOS 12.1.4 or later. You should also be using macOS Mojave 10.14.3 or later on your Mac.

Step 2: Update to the Latest Software

Before you proceed, it’s essential to update your device to the latest software version. This ensures all the necessary features and improvements are installed, optimizing FaceTime performance. On your iPhone or iPad, go to “Settings” > “General” > “Software Update.” On your Mac, click on the Apple menu, select “System Preferences” > “Software Update.”

Step 3: Enable FaceTime

If you haven’t used FaceTime before, you’ll need to enable it on your device. On your iPhone or iPad, go to “Settings” > “FaceTime” and toggle the switch to enable it. On your Mac, open the FaceTime app, click on “FaceTime” from the menu bar, and select “Turn FaceTime On.”

Step 4: Start a Group Video Call

Once you’ve completed the previous steps, you’re ready to initiate a group video call. Follow these simple steps:

  • Open the FaceTime app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
  • Tap the “+” icon on your iOS device or click on the “New Group” button on your Mac.
  • Type the names of the contacts you want to include in the group call in the search bar. You can select up to 32 contacts.
  • Tap “Video” or click the video camera icon to start the group video call.

Step 5: Manage Group Video Call Features

During a group video call, FaceTime offers various features to enhance your experience. Here are some essential tips:

  • Switch Camera: Tap the camera icon to switch between the front and rear cameras on your device.
  • Mute or Unmute: Tap the microphone icon to mute or unmute your audio during the call.
  • Add or Remove Participants: Tap the screen, tap the “…” icon, and select “Add Person” to add more participants. To remove someone, tap the screen, swipe up, and tap “Remove” next to the person’s name.
  • Resize Tiles: On your Mac, hover over a participant’s tile and click on the enlarge icon to make their video tile larger.

Step 6: End the Group Video Call

When you’re ready to end the group video call, simply tap the red “X” icon on your iOS device or click on the “X” icon on your Mac. Confirm your decision, and the call will be terminated.

Now that you know how to make group video calls with FaceTime, you can easily connect with multiple people simultaneously. Stay connected, catch up with friends, collaborate with colleagues, and make the most of this convenient feature offered by FaceTime.

Remember to always keep your device updated to enjoy the latest FaceTime features and improvements. Happy video calling!
