When making a FaceTime call, users can select up to three audio settings to optimize the app to isolate their voice or include background noise. Apple’s FaceTime allows users to communicate through audio and video calls. The app is integrated into the company’s ecosystem of iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices and features. To enhance the user experience, FaceTime has a number of features that are both useful and interesting.
For example, users can add multiple filters to a FaceTime video feed that will be visible to other members of the call. Users can also add text, animations, emoji stickers, etc. There is also a feature that allows users to enable portrait mode during FaceTime video calls. Apple’s latest 12MP ultra-wide front-facing iPads can even enable Center Stage during FaceTime video calls.
Audio settings for FaceTime are only available on select Apple devices. iPhone models that support FaceTime audio settings include iPhone SE (2nd generation or later) and iPhone XR and later. Most iPads introduced in the last few years also support FaceTime audio settings. This includes the fifth-generation iPad mini and later, the eighth-generation iPad and later, the third-generation iPad Air and iPad Pro 12.9-inch and later, and all 11-inch iPad Pro models. On Macs, FaceTime audio can be adjusted on models running macOS Monterey from 2018 or later.

FaceTime users can choose standard, voice isolationAnd A series of Sound settings. The default microphone setting for FaceTime calls on iPhone, iPad, and Mac is Standard. This mode allows other participants in the FaceTime call to hear what the user is saying while keeping out background noise.

To filter out background audio during a FaceTime call on iPhone or iPad, swipe down from the upper-right corner of the screen to open Control Center, tap microphone modethen choose voice isolation from options. On a Mac, during a FaceTime call, click the Control Center icon at the top of the screen, then in the menu that appears, click microphone mode and choose voice isolation.
Users can turn on Broad Spectrum Mode if they want to hear their surroundings (and their voice) during a FaceTime call. The steps to enable Broad Spectrum Mode in a FaceTime call are the same as Voice Isolation above, the user chooses A series of from microphone mode instead of. This mode is useful during group FaceTime calls when multiple people are gathered around the same device.
