Join a call from a FaceTime link
When you receive a link to a FaceTime call, you join the call in the FaceTime app if you’re using macOS 12, iOS 15, iPadOS 15 or later. You join the call on the web if you’re using an earlier OS version, or if you’re using an Android or Windows device that meets these requirements.
