    Facetime with Mac mini

    Hi. I have a Mac mini and I'd like to use FaceTime with it. Can I use any kind of webcam and is the resolution the same as the camera's maximum, i.e. will a 4K webcam allow me to transmit in 4K or is there an OS limitation such as 720p or 1080p?

    Can schools look at your past facetime calls?

    I heard from somewhere that your calls are recorded on school laptops and schools can go back and watch them. I personally don't believe this is true but I want confirmation. Is this true?

    General Group FaceTime disabled until bug is patched!

    Apple has disabled the group FaceTime feature until a fix is released meaning you can still continue to use FaceTime person to person safely.

    iPhone XS FaceTime is answering my phone without my permission

    Hey everyone, Had some of my coworkers find this issue and tried it with my iPhone Xs, figured I would post it here. If person A facetimes person B, person A can add person C to the facetime (group facetime) before person B accepts the call. This will cause person B to accept the call anyway...

    Group FaceTime on iOS and macOS

    In the September keynote event, they demo'd Group Facetime and said that you can have a mix of audio and video, not everyone has to be using the same. I tried doing a multi user group facetime audio, but it seems to bring up facetime video. Has anyone here successfully started a group facetime...

    When will Macs get better FaceTime Cameras? They're inferior to the cameras on the iPhones

    It's been crossing my mind but I find it funny that the cameras on our iPhones are miles ahead of the ones that come with our MacBooks and iMacs. You would think that the cameras would be on par or even better on the Macs because they have more room to work with. I really hope the next updates...

    iPhone FaceTime calls still go through even when DND/Bedtime mode is enabled

    Is this a bug? I just tested this with a friend. I turned on DND mode, and then told him to call me via FaceTime and my phone still rings, even with bedtime mode enabled. I really hope Apple fixes this. It should be silent just like if someone were to call you via regular phone.

    iOS12 FaceTime photos no more?

    Am I missing something or did Apple remove the camera button during a FaceTime call?? I loved getting higher quality pictures because screenshooting really depends on connection quality from both ends.

    Other Things that will make Memoji better - brainstorming

    I really love this feature and would love to see Apple bring it to their entire lineup such as the MacBooks, iMac's, MacPro, iPad, pretty much add it to all their devices. I know they would need to update the built-in iSight cameras to the ones used in the iPhone X/Xs in order to use this...

    FaceTime Mirroring in iOS 12

    I can’t for the life of me figure out why they moved flip camera to a second screen. Is there anyway to customize it? This is going to dive my parents nuts. They love seeing the grandkids, and like to show them stuff.
