How does FaceTime work?
It doesn’t matter wherever you are and what you are doing at the point of time. It may be possible that you are in an important meeting. You can make video calls from your iPhone or iPad or mac with just a tap on the FaceTime app. The best part of the video calling is that it marks your presence at a place even if you are not physically present there.
An easy tap does the trick
There is no need to set up a special account or have a specific screen name for making calls through FaceTime. Search for the name that you wish to call from your contacts and tap on the FaceTime button. You can also do the same through Siri. There are two ways you can switch to video mode while talking to someone. You can either tap on the FaceTime button or you can change the calling mode in to video mode. The person on the other side of the call will get an invitation from you to get connected to you through video call. The person on the other end has to accept your video call offer. You can either wish to put the video call in the landscape mode or portrait mode.
There are two built-in cameras to assist the video calling feature!
Front camera works for video calling
The settings of the front camera have been done in such a way as to assist the process of video calling. The front camera focuses on the face in a perfect way. The person on the other side of the phone sees your face as if the camera is at an arm’s length from your face. It also adjusts the light to give a clear view of your face to the person on the other side of your call.
Bring your to surroundings to anyone in the world
It is easy to record what is happening at the background along with your face to show to the person on the other side of the call in the real time with the back camera. For this you just need to tap twice on the screen. In the first tap of the screen you get to switch on the back camera that records what is happening on the background. In the second tap the front camera gets switched on to broadcast your face.
