Did you know you can initiate a FaceTime call from a web browser on either your Mac or iOS device using a custom URL? This can be an excellent tool for businesses, families, or anyone else who needs a quick and easy way to start a FaceTime chat.
By adding the prefix ‘facetime://’, you can customize your anchor tags and replace your Apple ID, email address, or phone number with the URL. The custom URL structures are:
- facetime: //appleid
- facetime: //email@address
- facetime: //phone number
When someone clicks on a correctly formatted FaceTime URL, the FaceTime app will automatically launch, and the video call will start as long as you have a FaceTime-enabled camera, the FaceTime app installed, and a valid Apple ID.
This trick can even be taken one step further by setting your Mac to accept FaceTime calls automatically from specified emails or numbers.
