FaceTime for Android.
Free Alternative.
FaceTime does not work on Android. This does. Start a free video call from any Android phone, no app needed.
Why FaceTime does not work on Android
Apple does not make a FaceTime app for Android. You can join a FaceTime link from an Android browser, but only if an iPhone user creates it first. You cannot start calls, share your screen, or use most features. For cross-platform video calls that work the same on every device, you need a tool built for all platforms from the start.
How it works
Open your browser
Chrome on Android, Safari on iPhone. No app to install.
Get your call link
Click Start Call. Your unique link generates in one second.
Share and connect
Send the link to anyone. Android, iPhone, laptop. Same link works everywhere.
Everything you need

Full video calling from any Android phone.
Works on iPhone too

No download needed
Opens in Chrome, Safari, or any browser.
No account
No Apple ID, no Google account, nothing.

1-on-1 calls with just you and one other person.
Free forever
No cost, no premium tier.
Cross-platform calls without compromise
Whether you are on a Samsung Galaxy, a Google Pixel, or an older Android phone, the experience is identical. The person you call can be on an iPhone, a laptop, or a tablet. One link, same quality, same features on every device. No one has to ask 'which phone do you have?' before starting a call.
Why skip FaceTime on Android
No Apple ID needed
FaceTime requires an Apple account. We require nothing.
Either person can start
FaceTime links can only be created by iPhone users. Here, anyone can start a call.
Full feature parity
FaceTime on Android via links lacks screen sharing. This works fully on every device.
Works on every Android phone
Budget phones, older models, Samsung, Xiaomi, Pixel. If it has a browser, it works.
“The best FaceTime alternative for Android is the one that does not require FaceTime at all.”
