Video calls have long been a way to stay connected with friends and family, but they've often lacked the shared experiences that make in-person gatherings so special.

Luckily, Apple’s SharePlay feature changes that by turning your FaceTime calls into interactive, shared entertainment sessions. Whether you want to watch a movie together, listen to the same music, or collaborate on a project, SharePlay makes it possible without leaving your FaceTime call.

Let's explore how to use this feature to make your virtual hangouts more engaging and fun.

How to use SharePlay on FaceTime

  1. Ensure your device is updated to iOS 15.1 or later.
  2. Start or join a FaceTime call.
