Make Audio Only FaceTime Calls in iPhone

When there is a poor internet connection it’ll be challenging to do FaceTime with video streaming. If you just want to talk without video, you can do audio only call using FaceTime.  There are multiple ways to make an audio call using FaceTime.

Open FaceTime App and tab the info button at the right to go the contact details screen. In this screen go down to FaceTime filed. Next to FaceTime use the phone button to make audio only calls. Same screen can be reached directly by tapping a contact name in the contact App. On top of the iMessage conversation under the name you’ll find the option to select FaceTime audio by tapping the audio (phone) button. 

Since FaceTime VoIP calls using WiFi, it’ll not be a regular call using your cellular network. It could be a good alternative to other VoIP solutions to call your friends and family if they have iOS devices with WiFi connection. Also, voice quality should be better with audio only calls compare to using with video streaming since it uses less bandwidth.
