Can you FaceTime on Roman Perez Jr. Archivesan Android phone? Most people would be inclined to answer "No" to the this question. After all, FaceTime is a feature that is purpose-built for the Apple ecosystem, so how on earth can an Android user participate in a FaceTime call.
Well, you'd be surprised. At the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) three years ago, Apple made an announcement that shocked the masses.
In WWDC 2021, Apple announced that Android users will have the option to participate in a FaceTime call, but there is a catch. While they can join a FaceTime session, they can't launch one. An iPhone user would need to send the Android participant a link, allowing them to join the call.
For example, on my M2 15-inch MacBook Air, I can tap on the FaceTime app and hit "Create link."
I can then send that link to an Android user, which sends them to a page that prompts them to add their name before hitting "Continue."

So to answer the "Can you FaceTime on an Android?" question, the answer is "kind of." Yes, you can FaceTime on an Android, but no, you can't launch any FaceTime calls on a non-iOS phone.
