You should now see your iOS device mirrored on the larger screen. Now open the FaceTime app and initiate a video call in the usual way; this will give you full-screen Facetime access!

For Chromecast: Enable casting permission on your Android device and look for the Screen Cast button; select it and then pick the device you want to mirror your display onto from the list. After it connects, launch FaceTime and start a video call as normal; this will give you full-screen Facetime access!

With either of these methods, you’ll be able to enjoy Facetime conversations in full-screen glory—no squinting required! And if any?AirPlay? passcode appears on your TV screen during setup, make sure to enter it into your iOS device for security purposes.
