Apple Watch is an excellent extension of iPhone, and many operations exempt you from putting your hand on the iPhone. From the Apple Watch we can read notifications from the applications on the iPhone, we can take voice calls, read and send emails (vocal dictation composition) or we can initiate calls.
For many users, FaceTime means video calls, but unfortunately Apple Watch does not have a camera that allows you to take over or initiate a FaceTime video call.
But Facetime does not only mean video calling. The service can also be used for calls via Internet.

The FaceTime Voice Calling service works excellent on Apple Watch. We can also take on the FaceTime calls on the Apple smart hour. It is preferable to have AirPods or Airpods Pro for calls, but if we do not have these accessories we can use without problems the high quality speaker and the high -loyal microphone of the Apple Watch.

How we initiate a facetime call on Apple Watch

The simplest way we can make a voice call on the facetime on Apple Watch, is with the help of Siri.

On Apple Watch, Siri help can be asked in various ways: “Rise to Speak" - lifting Apple Watch close to the mouth, the voice command"Hey Siri"Or by pressing the digital wheel -"Digital Crown“.
Order "Siri" for Initiation of a FaceTime Voice Call on Apple Watch, will start with "facetime", followed by the name of the person we want to call.

The facetime bells on the Apple Watch can be installed without siri, but you need to enter the "Phone" → "Contacts" → Select the contact you want to call → Press the "Phone" icon. The call will be initiated by default by facetime.

It is understandable that to take over or initiate facetime calls on Apple Watch, it must be connected to the Internet, through Wi-Fi / cellular network (if you have a cellular model) or associated with an iPhone connected to the Internet.

The best voice call experience on Apple Watch is completed by Airpods, Airpods Pro or other similar accessories. Calls will be automatically directed to Bluetooth accessories.
