您可以在Windows上使用FaceTime吗？

Apple’s Facetime video calling is perhaps one of their most used features. It lets people with iPhones, iPads, and Macs make easy video calls to one another. You can’t make Facetime calls from Windows, but there are several other ways to make video calls—even to iPhone users.

苹果的Facetime视频通话可能是他们最常用的功能之一。它使拥有iPhone，iPad和Mac的人们之间可以轻松进行视频通话。您无法从Windows进行Facetime通话，但是还有其他几种进行视频通话的方法，甚至可以用于iPhone用户。

No, there is no Facetime on Windows, and there’s not likely to be anytime soon. Facetime is a proprietary standard, and just isn’t available outside the Apple ecosystem. So, if you were hoping to use Facetime to call your mom’s iPhone from your Windows PC, you’re out of luck. However, there are several great video calling alternatives that do work on Windows.

不，Windows上没有Facetime，而且不可能很快出现。 Facetime是专有标准，只是在Apple生态系统之外不可用。因此，如果您希望使用Facetime在Windows PC上为妈妈的iPhone打电话，那您真不走运。但是，有几种出色的视频通话替代方法可以在Windows上使用。
