FaceTime wasn’t the first video calling app, but it’s arguably the best-known and one of the most widely used. Apple doesn’t make an Android version, however, and the only way people on that platform can join is by inviting an iPhone user to a call they’re already on. And if you want to use FaceTime on Windows, you’re out of luck for now.
