Face time on Windows or Android

[Andrewgerm]

Hi all, first post, but long time reader of the forums

I've been looking to video call a few people. Some refuse to use Skype, and only use face time. I do not have an iOS device, but have seen some supposed ways to run this on a Windows PC.

Has anyone tried any of these apps that are avaible?
Any feedback welcomed.

Thank you, ChrisStar1

I've seen a few of those, but I've seen one or two complaints about malware in some of those.
I do have up to date anti-malware software, and am careful where I get software from.

Just wondering if anyone has used any of these emulators or apps? And what their experience was?

Why do they refuse to use skype?

 

[Andrewgerm]

Silly reasons, actually!!
I don't see why. I know it's Microsoft, and people have a thing against them (well, we all do, to a degree) but, I have Skype on everything, my Windows desktop, my Android tablet, my Blackberry phone, my Linux laptop, and well, those are my devices. I'd likely have it elsewhere too, if I had a smart TV or game system...

I would just cross them off your call list

Google Hangouts instead?

Also mostly multiplatform if you ignore Windows Phone.
