Apple has answered the call for a more immersive and convenient shared viewing experience with the long-awaited integration of FaceTime on Apple TV. The release of tvOS 17 brings forth an array of features that revolutionize the way users interact and enjoy content with their loved ones, making it an ideal solution for those seeking seamless virtual connections during times of social distancing.
Previously, users had to rely on AirPlay to stream content to their Apple TV while simultaneously holding their iPhones during FaceTime calls. However, with the arrival of tvOS 17, these inconveniences are a thing of the past. The FaceTime app is now directly accessible on the Apple TV 4K, allowing users to utilize their iPhones and Continuity Camera to view all participants on the larger TV screen while engaging in FaceTime conversations.
