Wait. Is this normal cross platform FaceTime? Or is this like a different FaceTime because FaceTime is awesome.


There's a web client. Non-apple devices can join calls but can't initiate them.

If you're on iOS/macOS, you can send someone a web link to join a FaceTime call with you. Not sure how the browser support is offhand. There's no client for anything else and others can't initiate calls.


I believe it's web based for cross platform. So equivalent to Google Meet and with similar UX limitations.


Everyone can initiate a call in Google Meet. Only Apple customers can initiate a call in FaceTime. So, they're not exactly equivalent.
